DataTable
The DataTable is the default view the user sees when running a script with the chart option. It
intitially starts empty and populates as it recieves information parsed from the console originally
from the script. The DataTable is a visualization of the data structure that every other graph type
spawns from.

The columns of the DataTable can be resized at will by dragging the seperation lines between column
headers. In addition, the information in the data table can be saved and loaded without having to re-run the script. Furthermore, the user can populate the
DataTable without having to run a script if a script's output has been saved into a file, see
Opening Script Output .
