[Baypiggies] Want to redirect output to a csv file

[Shannon -jj Behrens]

Ha!  I wrote very much that same script this week!

$ ./blueplate/parsing/cleancuttsv.py -h
Usage: cleancuttsv.py [options]

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --assert-head=FIELD1\tFIELD2\t...
                        assert that the first line of the file matches this
  --delete-head         delete the first line of input
  -n NUM, --num-fields=NUM
                        assert that there are this many fields per line

Small world.
