ffe: Write only the selected fields.
$ ffe --field-list="${FirstName,LastName,Age}" -c ${path-to-config-ffe} ${path-to-input}
try on your machine

This command is using the "ffe" tool with various options and arguments. Here is the explanation of each part:

  • ffe: This is the name or path to the "ffe" command-line tool.
  • --field-list="${FirstName,LastName,Age}": This option defines the list of fields to process. In this case, it specifies that the fields to consider are FirstName, LastName, and Age. The values are enclosed within double quotes "${ }".
  • -c ${path-to-config-ffe}: This option specifies the path to the configuration file for the "ffe" tool. The variable ${path-to-config-ffe} should be replaced with the actual path to the configuration file.
  • ${path-to-input}: This is the path to the input file or directory that will be processed by the "ffe" tool. The variable ${path-to-input} should be replaced with the actual path to the input.

Overall, this command is running the "ffe" tool with a specific set of fields defined in --field-list, using a configuration file specified by -c, and processing an input file or directory specified by ${path-to-input}.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
