NAME
csv2yapet - convert CSV file to YAPET file
SYNOPSIS
csv2yapet [[-c] | [-h] | [-V]] | [[-p password] [-q] [-s separator]] src dst
DESCRIPTION
Convert a CSV file src to an YAPET file dst. The default character for delimiting the fields is ',' (comma) unless specified otherwise on the command line by providing the -s. Fields containing the field separator character have to be enclosed in double quotes ("). In order to convert a double quote character it has to be preceded by another double quote character. The following table describes the fields of the source CSV file as expected by csv2yapet: Table 1.
