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 github.com/astanin/python-ta…) using `python-tabulate` package

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

col docs: visidata.org/docs/columns/

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

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.
