./" Manual page for tag2tab
.TH tag2tab 1 "June 7, 1998"
.SH NAME
tag2tab \- Convert a tab seperated file into a tag file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B tag2tab
.B [\-t fieldname...]
.B [-D]
.B [-h]
.SH DESCRIPTION
tag2tab takes a tag format file on standard input, and outputs those fields
specified on the command line, separated by tab characters.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-h
Disables normal header processing. If this is not present then
the first record is assumed to be a header, and will not be output to
the tabbed file.
.TP
.B \-m
Mime flag - output the names of the fields from the command line as the first
line of the output file. This produces a file in the format of the Mime
text/tab-separated-values file type.
.TP
.B \-t fieldname...
Specifies the names of the fields from the tagged file which are to be
output.
.TP
.B \-D
Take the list of fields from the descriptor for the tag file.
Note that this conflicts with -h as the tag file must have a header in order
to locate the descriptor file.
Either
.B -t fieldname...
or
.B -D
must be specified to obtain interesting output.
