*The app uses a custom-written parser, which searches the incoming message for plottable data in form of label-value set. At the moment, all labels and values **must be separated with a whitespace** in order to be recognized. Its possible to use separators like "=" and "," - parser will be replace them with whitespace before processing. If no label is found, a generic name will be used i.e. "Graph 0".*
