Does such a thing exist? Text-based spreadsheets that display well in a CLI environment. I'm aware that I could cat foobar.csv
and do as I please, but it isn't particularly practical or attractive. I cannot imagine it would be hard to format a table, and maybe follow certain rules (math?) as well.
Emacs has org-mode
which handles text-based tables quite well, and allows exporting to multiple formats. However, one must use Emacs! Which as a Vim user I would prefer to avoid.

There's
sc
andoleo
(neither of which I have any experience with). Being a GNU project, however, oleo's handling is more likely to be emacsesque than vimmy.
