Something wonderful happened today: I met @saulfp the inventor of @VisiData, I met Anja Kefala, who takes care of VisiData, and I met @jmreagle a member of the beautiful community of visidata.
Thank you, you are beautiful people

@driscollis @matplotlib @plotlygraphs @bokeh :-) Visidata!

[Louis Maddox @permutans]

visidata can save views (e.g. filters, sorts, freq. tables) with the typical `Ctrl+S`, or yank to the system clipboard with `gY`

It can do this export in various formats (tho GitHub markdown table format didn't work for me https://t.co/VDLaIzluyw) using `python-tabulate` package

[Louis Maddox @permutans]

Starting to get the hang of visidata:
`#` / `%` sets col. as int/float
`[` / `]` sort ⇡/⇣
`=` creates a new col. via Python expr (col. names are variables & tab complete), `g=`/`z=` overwrites col/row

Lovely stuff

Che meraviglia: con @frictionlessd8a 5.10, @VisiData è integrato nativamente. Tutto a partire dal nuovo comando "explore"
Sia per leggere un file locale, che una lista di risorse da @ZENODO_ORG
Cose che @pcmasuzzo e @DennisAngemi devono sapere

[Tech Mage 🇺🇦 @WarpSpeed17]

Today i found awesome and really fast cli tool to view csv files. It looks way better than csvlook | less.
it also shows headers on top when you scroll
sudo apt install visidata;
vd file.csv

@jsvine 's @VisiData tutorial at #NICAR23 wound up being immediately useful for poking around in Cal eProcure. Allow me to present some of California's weirder Walgreens purchaces: https://t.co/BeY38bXmnU

@mmngreco Hi @mmngreco, it's hard to do support over Twitter. Can you create a discussion on Github?

[Ming "Tommy" Tang @tangming2005]

1/ Me in 2012:
1. could not open a 2GB file with excel
2. frustrated that people are too busy to help me
3. wrote my first "hello world"

-------
Me in 2023:
1. happily play with visidata https://t.co/0SQGqQ8YJ9
2. share and teach others computation
3. share unix and R tricks

[Michael Barton @bioinformatics]

I'm enjoying building small quick command line tools around visidata. Particularly nice for spot-checking parquet which I've usually had to use a custom python or R script in the past.
