- Command line tools for manipulating structured text data

creating a text file in Linux
This works well in scripts and logs of all the commands you need to do to reproduce the current state of the system from a scratch install. Also can be used with diff -u and patch, sed, perl, and awk oneliners and structured text tools. You can also capture most of the commands using sudo logging feature but it won't capture the here documents. But for modest size files you can use newlines in echo commands. Note that commands which use redrection should use something like ~~~~ sudo bash -c "echo 'foo' >>file.txt" ~~~~ instead of "sudo echo foo >>file.txt" or "echo foo | sudo tee -a file.txt

Using Commandline to Process CSV Files
TFA is about how to handle csv files with awk. This might be useful in straightforward cases.
For all others Iād recommend to have a look at
https://github.com/dbohdan/structured-text-tools
which lists tools to handle structure text formats

Combine multiple files
in general, I'd pick something from https://github.com/dbohdan/structured-text-tools

What is your favourite Linux backup software and why?
Also, here is a list of structured text tools. You may find some tools there that are helpful in editing configuration files from the command line. Or you can use "diff -u" to create a patch file (you need to save the patch files along with sudo.log) to recreate. Also, use sfdisk --dump and sfdisk --backup to save partition information in a form that can be used to recreate backups.
