Modern CSV 2.0.2 instal the new version for apple

ModernCSV took away a huge pain-point for me on this project. The interface for editing multiple cells, cutting/pasting, and filtering felt intuitive and, well, modern. Within seconds I felt at home, able to easily navigate around and edit individual cells. With a great deal of skepticism, I downloaded the “free trial” and fired up the editor. This time, though, SEO worked its magic and ModernCSV came up on the first page. I was loathing the idea of starting a project with this ETL system, and I googled “CSV editor” as I had a thousand times before expecting only disappointment.

I found a terminal-based editor, but its keybindings were beyond my comprehension and I frequently destroyed my CSV files. Plaintext editors are a nuisance and I end up playing “count the commas”. Excel and other spreadsheet programs just mangle CSV format. I can chew through 100s of GB of data without batting an eye.īut hand-editing individual rows in CSV files has _always_ been a headache. I can slap together pipelines using xsv, perl, sed, csvkit, awk, grep, and countless other CLI utilities in my sleep. The CSV files varied in size from a 10s to 100s of rows, each one needing to be lovingly entered by hand. I inherited an ETL system that used a set of CSV files to “program” the ETL process.
