Dear all,

I want to create a tab-delimited text file, containing 3 columns, wondering how to do it in terminal?

I hope the text file looks like this:

$sample    filepath of $sample_1P  filepath of $sample_2P

NA18757    $sample/$sample_1P      $sample/$sample_2P

NA18627    $sample/$sample_1P      $sample/$sample_2P

NA18591    $sample/$sample_1P      $sample/$sample_2P

NA18566    $sample/$sample_1P      $sample/$sample_2P

NA18644    $sample/$sample_1P      $sample/$sample_2P
