It's also possible to edit many formats of bit-map graphics in
Acme, but I prefer to use a different tool. Perhaps a database
rather than a text editor is the best way to edit large tuples,
even if the representation is ASCII based?

On the other hand, I understand the problem, and
I wondered if an Acme tool is possible that handles columated
data, allowing navigation and selecting of rows? (Is
this a minimal spreadsheet program?)

I decided in the end that the data should be handled by other
tools and \include'd into the document I was writing.
