5 stars for supporting tab separator! Just type \t in separator field
by Danil Zarubin, 2025-01-29

Would prefer that it display the CSV in table form by default, but having to click the icon isn't so bad. -½★ for that, and another -½★ for the fact that you have to fill in the form every time you use it. Otherwise, Outstanding!
