Hi all,
I've open sourced a set of command line utilities for
manipulating tab-separated value files. They are complementary
to traditional unix tools like cut, grep, etc. They're useful
for manipulating large data files. I use them when prepping
files for R and similar tools. These tools were part of my
'explore D' programming exercises.
The tools are here: https://github.com/eBay/tsv-utils-dlang
They are likely of interest primarily to people regularly
working with large files, though others might find the
performance benchmarks of interest as well (included in the
README).
I'd welcome any feedback, either on the apps or the code.
Intention is that the code be reasonable example programs. And,
I may write a blog post about my D explorations at some point,
they'd be referenced in such an article.

I rarely need TSV files, but I deal with CSV files every day.
- It would be nice to test your implementation against std.csv
(it can use TAB as separator). Did you try to compare the two?
