Very nice. The agate library (by the same author of csvkit) also prints out text charts, though I don't think it has a CLI: <a href="http://agate.readthedocs.io/en/1.6.1/" rel="nofollow">http://agate.readthedocs.io/en/1.6.1/</a>
A similar idea is used in UnicodePlots [1], a Julia terminal plotting library. This kind of tools is very useful when you are connected to some HPC cluster and want to have a quick look at the contents of data files.<p>Of course, the approach is quite different, as Termgraph seems a stand-alone program, while UnicodePlots is a library.<p>[1] <a href="https://github.com/Evizero/UnicodePlots.jl" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/Evizero/UnicodePlots.jl</a>
I love this. It feels like a solution to a problem I never knew I had. I'm a very visual thinker, and there have been so many times where I wish I could summarize a volume of data into graphs without loading up Sheets.
very nice. reminds me of <a href="https://github.com/bitly/data_hacks" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/bitly/data_hacks</a>
I actually wrote one of these myself years ago. I never finished it up for general use because I thought "someone must have done this already" so I just left it as a "util" buried in some project. I always seem to think the same thing.
