+NAME

+    and vice versa
+
+SYNOPSIS
+    ModifyTextFilesFormat.pl TextFile(s)...
+
+    ModifyTextFilesFormat.pl [-h, --help] [--indelim comma | semicolon]

+    rootname] [-w, --workingdir dirname] TextFile(s)...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+    Interchange CSV and TSV *TextFile(s)* format. Mutiple file names are
+    separated by spaces. The valid file extensions are *.csv* and *.tsv* for
+    comma/semicolon and tab delimited text files respectively. All other
+    file names are ignored. All the text files in a current directory can be
+    specified by **.csv*, **.tsv*, or the current directory name. The
+    --indelim option determines the format of *TextFile(s)*. Any file which
+    doesn't correspond to the format indicated by --indelim option is
+    ignored.
+
