What do I do wrong?

 

In the process of - slowly - switching from MS/365 for Linux/LibreOffice 
(Debian 13.3) I encounter some problems with Calc

 

Please see below a part of a directory listing of an Obsidian vault - made with 
KFind

 

Try to import it Calc for some purposes, but the <dot> and <slash> or their 
combination <dot><slash> seems to be interpreted as column delimiters. I tried 
to specify no delimiters at alI: I want to have the full file path and name in 
a single column.

Encountered something similar with grep output containing a <colon><space> 
combination (after "created") and thus removed from the value. Here I 
explicitly specified only the <tab> als delimiter but the <colon><space> 
combination is also treated as a delimiter (which in this case is helpful, but 
still not what I specified.)

Learning grep as well:  grep -rHT 'created: ' --include=\*.md . > 
~/Documents/notes-created.txt

I expect that I do something wrong, - even? - MS-XL does this better
