Yes. Scratching your own itch is one of the funnest parts of scripting.

I made simple script that converts DB ids output per line that you'd get from a query into a comma separated line with a one line bash script.

e.g. converts:

1

2

3

to:

1, 2, 3

Since I do a lot of querying it is very helpful. To achieve the same thing in Excel is a fucking nightmare.

The cool part is when I feed it like 50000 lines of input how relatively quick it does it.

alias onelinify="paste -d, -s -"

example usage (on macos): cat db-ids.txt | onelinify | pbcopy
