NAME

6       dbcoldefine - define the columns of a plain text file to make it an
7       Fsdb file
8

SYNOPSIS

10       dbcoldefine [-F x] [column...]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       This program writes a new header before the data with the specified
14       column names.  It does not do any validation of the data contents; it
15       is up to the user to verify that, other than the header, the input
16       datastream is a correctly formatted Fsdb file.
17

OPTIONS

19       -F or --fs or --fieldseparator s
20           Specify the field separator.
21
22       --header H
23           Give the columns and field separator as a full Fsdb header
24           (including "#fsdb").  Can only be used alone, not with other
25           specifications.
26
27       This module also supports the standard fsdb options:
28
29       -d  Enable debugging output.
30
31       -i or --input InputSource
32           Read from InputSource, typically a file name, or "-" for standard
33           input, or (if in Perl) a IO::Handle, Fsdb::IO or Fsdb::BoundedQueue
34           objects.
35
36       -o or --output OutputDestination
37           Write to OutputDestination, typically a file name, or "-" for
38           standard output, or (if in Perl) a IO::Handle, Fsdb::IO or
39           Fsdb::BoundedQueue objects.
40
41       --autorun or --noautorun
42           By default, programs process automatically, but Fsdb::Filter
43           objects in Perl do not run until you invoke the run() method.  The
44           "--(no)autorun" option controls that behavior within Perl.
45
46       --help
47           Show help.
48
49       --man
50           Show full manual.
