miller
Miller is like awk, sed, cut, join, and sort for name-indexed data such as CSV, TSV, and tabular JSON
Because you also need to manipulate (open, close, position) windows using mouse clicks. For most of my file management I use nnn - single window (only the terminal), easy navigation with arrows and no need to keep switching between the mouse and the keyboard.
And it turns out things like "what percent of software in Fedora Linux is under which licenses"? are easier to answer from the command line, and in general, tools like Miller (um, no personal relation) make data-crunching from the command line faster and easier than working with a spreadsheet.
