πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
Okay so, this page gives you the brief rundown on the csvtool command, no cap.
Real talk though: this manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program literally does not have a manual page of its own. Not a vibe, but we move. Instead, it has documentation you can get to with the --help option π«Ά
Anyway β csvtool is a tool for performing manipulations on CSV files from shell scripts. It's giving "little utility, big main character energy" π
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
-help,--helpβ Show help. That's it, that's the whole option list, and honestly? Iconic for keeping it simple π

Just a heads up bestie: the source field up top is still a [FIXME: source] placeholder and the date on this one is January 15, 2008 β so it's lowkey vintage, but it's still valid and we're obsessed. Slay π
