Nice, a tool like this might actually get my team to finally move from csv to sqlite. I was thinking parquet or feather might be interesting alternatives to csv for us though, any plans to add support?
Use that all the time actually! But the main argument for CSV that I most often hear is "at least I can just load it into any text editor.." I figured having a pretty good TUI program might be just as good as using a text editor, but we'll see.
Yup I remember that was a bit annoying and tricky. I had a partial fix but there were edge cases that threw me off so I opted to just save something like that for whenever I do a full rewrite.
I'm the author. I do embedded C and other stuff heavily now that doesn't use SQLite in any way. Was able to write the thing in the first place because we used SQLite everywhere so it made my job easier.
I'm way better at Golang now too so I would really like to do a better job with the project but yeah, no bandwidth.
I mean if anyone wants to take over feel free in a fork and I'll archive my repo.
I've seen a rust database tui that looks nuts. Was developed around the same time I made mine.
But if people still like benefits of Go then yeah honestly a rewrite from scratch might be better. Its not that hard just takes a while - query entire DB into data structure and then write serialization routines. The UI portion is just bubbletea and gum.
It doesn't have my favorite feature from mine which is "yo lemme just quick update this one field without writing SQL" I don't think but still pretty and powerful

Also visidata and sc-im do a better job with configuring the view. I used all 3 programs.
I like termdbms but the author seems to not have the bandwidth for it.

Still, your project shows up in search engines. Maybe you should consider handing it off to someone?
But I'll understand if not. Scratching our own itch and moving on, and all that. :)

Which one is that?
