Tab Separated Values Tools

A Tab Separated Values (TSV) file is a simple text format for storing data in a tabular structure. Each row in the table is represented by a line of text in the file. Within each row, columns of data are separated by tabs. This format is useful for moving data between programs or systems that handle tabular data, such as spreadsheets and databases. TSV files are easy to read and write by both humans and machines. They are especially useful when handling data that contains special characters or commas since the tab character is less likely to appear in field data than commas.
