Sorry, I misread. I thought you were trying to read a CSV.  LibreOffice
can read and write CSV.  To save, just use Save As and select CSV for
the filter.

my eyes were bleeding, the below is the best I could come up with.
I've tried various incarnations of the below this is just the latest.
Any ideas what's wrong here?  The input file clearly exists.  ubuntu
16.04 LibreOffice 5.1.6.2 10m0(Build:2)

Thank you in advance!
