About TableTool

TableTool is an open-source CSV editor for macOS. It opens CSV files, detects their format settings automatically, and shows the contents in a table view. Users can edit cells, rows, and columns in a grid, or convert an existing CSV file to a different format.

The project is intentionally limited. Its stated scope is a simple CSV editor and nothing more, so formatting options and formulas are out of scope. The README describes it as a simple CSV editor for OS X and points to the Mac App Store for download.

Key features

  • Automatically detects CSV record delimiter, character encoding, and quoting style
  • Allows manual setting of CSV format specifications when needed
  • Grid-based interface for editing cell contents
  • Edit rows and columns directly within the table view
  • Convert an existing CSV file to a different format
Best for: Mac users who need to open, edit, or convert CSV files from different sources without the features of a full spreadsheet application.
