every

Selects every n-th row of a table, starting from the first one. With the --skip flag, every n-th row will be skipped, inverting the original functionality.

Syntax: > [input-command] | every <stride> {flags}

Flags

  • --skip, -s: Skip the rows that would be returned, instead of selecting them
