dbrowenumerate: enumerate rows, starting from zero

NAME

dbrowenumerate - enumerate rows, starting from zero

SYNOPSIS

dbrowenumerate

DESCRIPTION

Add a new column ``count'', incremented for each row of data, starting with zero. Use dbrowaccumulate for control over initial value or increment; this module is just a wrapper around that.

OPTIONS

-N or --new-name N

Name the new column N. Defaults to "count".

This module also supports the standard jdb options:

-d

Enable debugging output.

-i or --input InputSource

Read from InputSource, typically a file name, or "-" for standard input, or (if in Perl) a IO::Handle, Fsdb::IO or Fsdb::BoundedQueue objects.

-o or --output OutputDestination

Write to OutputDestination, typically a file name, or "-" for standard output, or (if in Perl) a IO::Handle, Fsdb::IO or Fsdb::BoundedQueue objects.

--autorun or --noautorun

By default, programs process automatically, but Fsdb::Filter objects in Perl do not run until you invoke the run() method. The "--(no)autorun" option controls that behavior within Perl.

--help

Show help.

--man

SAMPLE USAGE

Input:

    #h account passwd uid gid fullname homedir shell

    cat DATA/passwd.jdb | dbrowenumerate

    #h account passwd uid  gid fullname       homedir     shell     count
