@0xF21D it is a #TSV file, but aside from out-commented lines, all entries are just one after the other, thus should just import fine.

I don't use #CSV as I want to be able to write full sentences in data fields and standardized on this since some fields may need #commas and #spaces, whereas #tabs work perfectly fine as seperators...

'Punctuation controls two things: logical separation and breath… Writers weigh each role differently.'
