I don't disagree but nobody has complained so far. The data is pretty much impossible to look at without less. I could certainly add an option for raw output.

The bigger issue is that I'm still loading the results entirely into memory and this is a problem when a large amount of data is returned. I still can't figure out how to use a file handle in combination with split (which I need in order to parse the DB output). Really the only thing I can think to do is just create a few temp files myself and manage them manually because it just seems to complicated to get these various methods to work.
