fixed2csv: A quick-and-dirty tool for converting fixed-width fields to CSV

You can do this with awk, but this should be faster.

To install:

cargo install -f --git https://github.com/faradayio/fixed2csv.git fixed2csv

Given an input file input.txt:

first     last      middle
John      Smith     Q
Sally     Jones

You should be able to run:

$ fixed2csv -v 10 10 6 < input.txt
first,last,middle
John,Smith,Q
Sally,Jones,
