treeify - manual page for treeify 3.1.0

usage: treeify [-h] [-o OUTPUT] [-r PATTERN] [-d DELIMITER] [-s SPLIT] [-F]

[-A] [--filler FILLER] [input]

Identify a column of text that contains hierarchical id and treeify that column. This script will inspect a text file and attempt to find a vertically left-aligned column of text that contains identifiers with multiple components, such as "Assets:US:Bank:Checking", and replace those by a treelike structure rendered in ASCII, inserting new empty lines where necessary to create the tree. Note: If your paths have spaces in them, this will not work. Space is used as a delimiter to detect the end of a column. You can customize the delimiter with an option.
