I just downloaded Gedcom-1.16.tar.gz, but before I spend any time on it, am I barking up the wrong tree? I have a GED file with most of my father's family. I also have several tab separated files with most of my mother's family. I want to merge the two into a single GED file.

There are 26 TSV files, all but one of them with 50 lines. Some of these lines are duplicates of records already in the GED file. I need to read each line, extract the specific fields I need and insert records that do not appear to be duplicates. Once that is finished I will need to prune the file of trees outside of my immediate family.

Can Gedcom help me do this, or should I be looking for other tools?

Thank you,
