I heavily use SeaMonkey's Mail/News tagging feature (currently ~50

edited it such that Gnumeric read it as CSV.
It displays it as:
label1 color #FF0000
label1 ordinal $lg
label1 tag Important
label2 color #990000
label2 ordinal $lb
label2 tag "re repository"
label3 color #99FFFF
label3 ordinal $ld
label3 tag Personal
I want it to look like:
label1 #FF0000 Important
label2 #990000 "re repository"
label3 #99FFFF Personal
I've not done anything with spreadsheets in DECADES.

Suggestions &/or reading assignment?
TIA

See below for "Script", "Input File", and "Output File" ... this is a
BASH script, containing some SED and GAWK lines ... someone else may be
able to do that more elegantly?
Hope that helps, or at least is a starting point

[snip the script]
I've not done much with bash. This gives me a good starting point for
exploring it. Your code suggests how I can process prefs.js directly
rather than going thru my spreadsheet kludge as intermediate step.
Thank you
