Leo already has reasonable CSV support via the "edit-pane-csv" command, thanks to Terry. This could be improved if the CSV header line could be "frozen", so it shows even when scrolling down in the CSV table. IMHO, this is of limited use unless one can also scroll horizontally, hide columns,

I'd also be very interested in this. Also related, this earlier thread on Using Leo as a database - I'd love to hear followup on that. I'd prefer having the result set of a query (multiple rows) inside a single node

Thanks for this post, Edward. I also dabbled around using Leo as an actual db (though very much smaller data sets), with not much success. I tried storing data using YAML, but it's very clunky and not efficient. I'm very much interested in figuring out how to use Leo as a sort of 'frontend' to
