acters.
-d Specify an alternative column delimiter If no delimiter is specified, table names will be delimited by a , (comma) character.
-R Specify a row delimiter
-I INSERT statements (instead of CSV). You must specify the SQL dialect.
-D Set the date format (see strftime(3) for details)
-q Use to wrap text-like fields. Default is ".
