Description

I'm using the npm install method and i'm having a terrible time working with tsv files. none of the commandline options seem to work as expected. the header line wasnt even recognized until i swapped it out for a csv one. now looking at the resulting file the translation is all skewed for some reason. Can someone show me the correct syntax for this?

Compare the generated GeoJSON against the input, including delimiter and header handling; done means a confirmed correct invocation or a documented bug with a reliable reproduction.
