Great Rufus, I am testing.

Greetings to all!

> Hi All,
>
> We have a working Github CSV editor, built as part of the Data Explorer
> (aka DataDeck):
>
> http://explorer.okfnlabs.org/
>
> Example (screenshot below):
>
>
> http://explorer.okfnlabs.org/#datasets/transformer-test/edit/master/data/data.csv
>
> Note: you probably won't be able to save your edits on this CSV (as you
> won't have write permissions on the underlying repo) - but if you try with
> your own CSVs (and are logged in) it should work fine.
>
> To load your own CSV just click "Edit an Existing Github CSV" on the start
> page <http://explorer.okfnlabs.org/#start> and then paste the link to a
> CSV file.
>
> This is still fairly alpha and lots to be improved but there are some cool
> features like ability to run mini-javascript scripts to process the CSV
> (the same features we have in the main part of the Data Explorer app).
> Please reports bugs in this issue
> <https://github.com/okfn/dataexplorer/issues/155>
>
> Lastly, we've added this feature into the DataDeck (aka DataExplorer) app
> which originally focused on allowing you to upload / import data and then
> wrangle it by hand or with scripting with the results stored into gists.
> This is probably a bit confusing and we many to separate the "edit github
> csv" from "create datadeck project" (which saves data to gists) part of the
> DataDeck app going forward - feedback warmly welcomed.

> PS: people will, I hope, notice the intentional "look" homage to prose.io
> - the first version of this app (named the Data Transformer then!) was
> built on a hack afternoon with Michael Aufreiter (the original creator of
> prose) back in 2012!
