csv -- cut for CSV files.

========================

Print selected comma separated values from each file to standard output.

csv is modeled after GNU coreutils' cut, but with CSV files in mind. The goal is

to process possibly large CSV files (>100MB) fairly efficiently and select

columns conveniently.

Examples

--------

    $ cat sample.csv

    first name,last name,favorite pet

    hans,hansen,moose

    peter,petersen,monarch

    $ go install github.com/fgeller/csv

    $ csv -c2-3 sample.csv

    last name,favorite pet

    hansen,moose

    petersen,monarch

    $ csv -n"favorite pet" sample.csv

    favorite pet

    moose

    monarch

    $ csv -n"favorite pet" --complement sample.csv

    first name,last name

    hans,hansen

    peter,petersen

    $ unix2dos sample.csv

    unix2dos: converting file sample.csv to DOS format...

    $ csv -N"last name" sample.csv 

    last name

    hansen

    petersen

    $
