try on your machine
The "csv2tsv" command is used to convert a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file to a TSV (Tab Separated Values) file.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "csv2tsv": This is the name of the command or program that performs the CSV to TSV conversion.
- "-c";" : This option specifies the delimiter used in the input CSV file. In this case, the delimiter is set to a semicolon (;). The delimiter is a character or sequence of characters that separates the values in each field of the CSV file.
- "${path-to-input_csv}": This is the placeholder for the path to the input CSV file. You need to replace it with the actual path to your CSV file. The path can be either relative (e.g., "data/input.csv") or absolute (e.g., "/home/user/Documents/input.csv").
Essentially, this command instructs the "csv2tsv" program to convert the given CSV file to a TSV file using semicolon (;) as the delimiter between values in the input CSV file. The resulting TSV file will have the same content as the CSV file, but with tabs (\t) as the delimiter instead of semicolons.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
