This is detected automatically if the file extension if .gz, but can be useful when reading gzipped data from stdin (since there is no content based detection for gzip) * `-H <N>` - Tells q to skip N header lines in the beginning of the file - Used naturally for skipping a header line. This can possibly be detected automatically in the future. -* `-d` - Column/field delimiter. If it exists, then splitting lines will be done using this delimiter.

If it doesn't, space will be used as the delimiter. If you need multi-character delimiters, run the tool with engine version 1 by adding `-E v1`. Using v1 will also revert to the old behavior where if no delimiter is provided, then any whitespace will be considered as a delimiter. * `-D` - Column/field delimiter for output. If it exists, then the output will use this delimiter instead of the one used in input. Defaults to input delimiter if provided by `-d`, or space if not. * `-t` - Shorthand flag for a tab delimiter, one header line format (Same as `-d $'\t' -H 1` - The $ notation is required so Linux would escape the tab...) * `-f <F>` - Output-formatting option. If you don't like the output formatting of a specific column, you can use python formatting in order to change the output format for that column. See below for details |
