Isn't a tab delimeted spreadsheet normally called a TSV, as in "Tab-Separated Values"?

Isn't CSV literally Comma-Separated Values?

Sorry, pedantry doesn't die.

A little bit yes, a little bit no

Tab delimited csv are sometimes called tsv, but just as often you'll see csv (tab delimited) as a file type option

See the wiki section on standardization for details.

Csv currently includes the following delimiters:

Comma, space, tab, pipe, or semicolon
