try on your machine
The provided command is using the "textql" tool to query data from a file with a specified delimiter and SQL syntax.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "textql" is the name of the tool or program being executed on the command line.
- "-dlm=tab" specifies the delimiter being used in the input file as a tab. This tells the tool that the columns in the file are separated by tab characters.
- "-sql" indicates that the following argument is an SQL query that you want to apply to the data.
- "${SELECT FROM filename}" is the SQL query itself. It selects all columns () from the table named "filename". Note that "filename" should be replaced with the actual name of the table or file you want to query.
- "${filenamename-tsv}" is the name of the input file (or table) in which you want to run the SQL query. The file extension suggests that it is a tab-separated values (TSV) file. You should replace "filenamename" with the actual name of the file you want to use.
In summary, the command executes the "textql" tool, specifies a tab delimiter, runs an SQL query that selects all columns from a table with a specified name, and applies the query to a tab-separated values file.
