Multiline indexing

Full Screen

Based on @mbostock’s multi-line chart. Click to re-index all lines by the selected line (i.e. display as a percentage of). Obviously most of it does not work yet (doesn’t recompute voronoi, for one thing). Needs an identity line (the original x-axis) so you can click to return to “absolute” terms. But like, absolute is always relative, man…
