ctags etc I'll split out. effectively there are make targets to make dev nice, and a smaller set just to make the binary. ctags definitely in the former category. thanks for the feedback!

my aim is portability within a 21st century context ... I need to find a succinct way to say that. the word "portable" is the wrong choice; sounds like it would compile on everything ever which I don't aim for.

semicolons etc you get with FS RS OS etc. number commas I can probably implement with locale; i'll look. and quotes are definitely to do. :)

yes, there is an issue open. I have . in my path. will post a diff.

quoting is key but i've not yet stumbled for lack of it. but it's very much worth doing.

miller handles large files well. it's fast enough, and doesn't hold entire file contents unless it has to (e.g. sort). so gigabytes of input data are fine.

good idea. I also have a request for a homebrew formula, which looks simple enough to do.

thanks! i use it regularly. but there are surely many corner cases & bugfixes i haven't encountered yet. i'd be happy to get your feedback.
