xan, the CSV magician https://github.com/medialab/xan
When does xan become annoying or limiting?
Excel
Do you use online tools for simple things like this ?? for maybe a bit faster output
Google Sheets.
A CSV file is just a list of records (rows and columns).
Got it, out of curiosity, what do you usually need to do with CSV files once you open them
Convert into a spreadsheet format so that I can apply transformations, calculations, summations, what/if scenarios via pivot tables, Monte Carlo simulations, etc.
Or just nice formatting.
