Using VisiData with the split_navigation.py plugin

http://visidata.org/ https://github.com/ajkerrigan/visidata-plugins#split_navigation-navigation-keybindings-for-masterdetail-split-views

The plugin was written with split views in mind, but works just fine when there’s only a single pane - it navigates through the parent sheet (the previous sheet on VisiData’s sheets stack) and keeps a single child sheet on top.
