Package: elpa-csv-mode (1.22-1)

Emacs major mode for editing comma, char, and tab separated values

This package implements CSV mode, a major mode for editing records in a generalised CSV (character-separated values) format. It also features support for TSV (tab-separated values). CSV mode supports operations such as the following:

  * sort lexicographically and numerically on a specified
    field or column.
  * kill and yank by field or column.  C-c C-k can kill more than one
    field at once, but multiple killed fields can be yanked only as a
    fixed group equivalent to a single field.
  * align fields into columns.
  * interchange between rows and columns.

CSV mode can recognise fields separated by a number of individual characters, configurable in `csv-separators'. CSV data fields can be delimited with quote characters. This implementation supports quoted fields, where all permitted quote characters are specified in the customisable user option `csv-field-quotes'. By default, the only separator is a comma and the only field quote is a double quote.

The global minor mode `csv-field-index-mode' displays the current field index in the mode line, cf. `line-number-mode' and `column-number-mode'. It is on by default.
