    derivation from your data, you create a new sheet which you can edit,
    save, and destroy later as needed and go back to your original table. It
    even presents settings and metadata as sheets so you can edit them as a
    normal sheet.

    It has plugins, and I guess it should be simple enough to create a
    plugin so you can filter rows or add columns using Perl expression
    instead of the default Python, if needed.

    My CLI framework Perinci::CmdLine (Perinci::CmdLine::Lite, v1.918+) has
    support for Visidata. You can specify command-line option "--format=vd"
    to browse the output of your CLI program in Visidata.

    2) DataTables, <https://datatables.net>

    DataTables is a JavaScript (jQuery-based) library to add controls to
    your HTML table so you can filter rows incrementally, sort rows, reorder
    columns, and so on. It also has plugins to do more customized stuffs. I
    still prefer Visidata most of the time because I am comfortable living
    in the terminal, but I particularly love the incremental searching
    feature that comes built-in with DataTables.

    My CLI framework Perinci::CmdLine (Perinci::CmdLine::Lite, v1.918+) also
    has support for DataTables. You can specify command-line option
    "--format=html+datatables" to output your CLI program's result as HTML
    table (using Text::Table::HTML::DataTables) when possible and then
    browse the output in browser.

    3) Tickit::Widget::Table, Tickit::Widget::Table

    This module lets you browse the table in a terminal. Using the Tickit
    library, the advantages it's supposed to have is mouse support. It's
    still very basic: you either have to specify each column width manually
    or the width of all columns will be the same. There's no horizontal
    scrolling support or a way to see long text in a column. Not updated
    since 2016.

    4) Term::TablePrint, Term::TablePrint

    This module lets you browse the table in a terminal. Provides roughly
    the same features like Tickit::Widget::Table with an extra one: you can
    press Enter on a row to view it as a "card" where each column will be
    displayed vertically, so you can better see a row that has many columns
    or columns with long text.

    There is currently no support beyond the most basic stuffs, so no column
    hiding, reordering, etc.

    5) less

    Don't forget the good ol' Unix pager. You can render your table data as
    an ASCII table (using modules like Text::Table::More, Text::ANSITable,
    or Text::Table::Any for more formats to choose from) then pipe the
    output to it. At least with *less* you can scroll horizontally or
    perform incremental searching (though not interactive filtering of
    rows).

    6) SQLite browser, SQLiteStudio, or other SQLite-based front-ends

    Another way to browse your table data interactively is to export it to
    SQLite database then use one of the many front-ends (desktop GUI,
    web-based, TUI, as well as CLI) to browse it. If you have your table
    data as a CSV, you can use the csv2sqlite script from App::SQLiteUtils
    to convert it to SQLite database.

    6) Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice, or other spreadsheet programs

    Yet another way to browse your table data interactively is to use a
    spreadsheet, which offers a rich way to view and manipulate data. You
    can generate a CSV from your table data; all spreadsheets support
    opening CSV files.

FAQ
  What is an Acme::CPANModules::* module?
    An Acme::CPANModules::* module, like this module, contains just a list
    of module names that share a common characteristics. It is a way to
    categorize modules and document CPAN. See Acme::CPANModules for more
    details.

  What are ways to use this Acme::CPANModules module?
    Aside from reading this Acme::CPANModules module's POD documentation,
    you can install all the listed modules (entries) using cpanm-cpanmodules
    script (from App::cpanm::cpanmodules distribution):

     % cpanm-cpanmodules -n BrowsingTableInteractively

    Alternatively you can use the cpanmodules CLI (from App::cpanmodules
    distribution):

        % cpanmodules ls-entries BrowsingTableInteractively | cpanm -n

    or Acme::CM::Get:

        % perl -MAcme::CM::Get=BrowsingTableInteractively -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

    or directly:

        % perl -MAcme::CPANModules::BrowsingTableInteractively -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $Acme::CPANModules::BrowsingTableInteractively::LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

    This Acme::CPANModules module also helps lcpan produce a more meaningful
