6.1.16 explodecols

Usage:

   explodecols <colid-list>

Takes a list of specified columns which represent N-element arrays and replaces each one with N scalar columns. Each of the columns specified by <colid-list> must have a fixed-length array type, though not all the arrays need to have the same number of elements.

This filter does the opposite of collapsecols.

Syntax for the <colid-list> argument is described in Section 6.3.
