db_to_csv - convert fsdb to the comma-separated-value file-format
db_to_csv [-C]
Covert an existing fsdb file to comma-separated value format.
Input is fsdb format.
Output is CSV-format plain text (not fsdb).
Also strip all comments.
This module also supports the standard fsdb options:
Enable debugging output.
Read from InputSource, typically a file name, or - for standard input, or (if in Perl) a IO::Handle, Fsdb::IO or Fsdb::BoundedQueue objects.
-
Write to OutputDestination, typically a file name, or - for standard output, or (if in Perl) a IO::Handle, Fsdb::IO or Fsdb::BoundedQueue objects.
By default, programs process automatically, but Fsdb::Filter objects in Perl do not run until you invoke the run() method. The --(no)autorun option controls that behavior within Perl.
