Usage: $0 [FILE]
Expand CSVM represented by FILE or stdin into a CSV

The columns of the expanded CSV will be automatically sorted
left-to-right.  To inhibit this behavior, use the \`!NOSORT'
directive anywhere before the header line in the source CSVM.

Options:
  --help  Output usage information.

This program has magic CSV powers.
