What format of data file is best for working with Awk? I assume some kind of tab delimited file? With a reliable ingestion layer you can convert all your files CSV-ish files to something ergonomic for Awk scripting.
JSON data files seem to be a similar deal. Sometimes they are actually properly formed JSON arrays and sometimes they are individual line-delimited objects.
Data files are a mess, is there a command line tool that is well suited to taking in many inconsistent formats and outputting something ergonomic?
