Plans for VisiData 3.0

[frosencrantz]

Hi,
I was wondering if there are any plans for releasing a VisiData 3.0?

• There have already been some fantastic changes with the guide sheets.
• There was some discussion of a command palette
• From the same thread mention of possible hierarchical display of data
• Also, there is now some basic form support.

Wondering if there is any more time available for a big release? The VisiData birthday is coming up soon on October 29th.

Hey @frosencrantz! Yes, I'm aiming to release VisiData 3.0 by the end of the year. Before then, I'd like to implement, fix, or Kondo most open Github Issues. @zormit is working on #247 for the "command palette" (Spacebar then start typing and get a fuzzy match of commands). I'm also hoping to improve the fancy chooser for jointypes and aggregators.

If we're feeling amibitious, I'd like to put together a plan for creating/improving the guide sheets. I think we have all the pieces now for a builtin tutorial that guides a brand new user through some of the basic commands in a fun way. If you or anyone else is interested, I'd love the help!
