support URLs

You should be able to pass a URL to pyopen and it should download and parse the file

Is there a way to force opening as a tsv?

There's a lot of tsv-formatted data online that has extension .txt. pyopen does not find a matching loader as-is, and with --loader pandas_csv it does not parse the \t's. Is there a way to specify a loader like pandas_tsv?

Error (related to Python3 strings vs. bytes?)
