I actually didn't see that -- good note. But I can definitely still find a use for this. In particular, there are are SO many Excel export tools out there that think they're doing me a a big favor, when really I just want a CSV. A program that can be sure to maintain fidelity from the original table might be worth it. I've also been working on using spreadsheets to create somewhat complex batch files for a document template process, but I couldn't figure out how to get the output into a simple text document. Maybe DocTo is the answer.
