I know there is CSV format, but I really prefer myself even simpler format, which is both easier to process by programs and read by humans. Just space separate format. Alternatively use tabs. With first row being a comment (starting with #) to describe columns.
Alternatively markdown table style format (with automatically determined width of each column to be equal for each row), is also useful.
Makes processing with tools like python, awk, grep, sed, kolumny, etc, much easier. :dagger:
