Visidata plugin

[polm]

Hello, this isn't a bug report, but I just thought I'd mention I made a plugin for VisiData that uses this library. It makes it easy to interactively inspect CoNLL files. Thanks for making the library!

Here's the plugin:

Here's a brief video of it in action:

Wow! So cool. I have not heard of visidata before, but it looks like a great program, and happy to see this library being put to good use.

That you were able to make it without opening a bug report is a good sign, I hope ;). Let me know if there's any issues or documentation holes you came across. I've been working on keeping a consistent schedule on this, so feedback will be quickly incorporated :).

Had no trouble at all with pyconll - the only issues I ran into were due to my lack of understanding of the CoNLL-U format. For example, I hadn't realized token IDs could be floating point numbers (and I've still never seen that).

This wasn't much of an issue for me, but it might be good to have some documentation of the fields in pyconll are handled in the README or another file locally, in additiona to the upstream docs, with notes on if you've found any exceptions to the spec in practice and how it's handled.
