I can see that using maatkit I can export the data as comma or tab separated values. But is there anyway to change the field separator?

I have a table that has comma as well as tabs in the data. Besides I need to process the data using awk that does not seem to work with certain fields data. I want to change the separator while dumping data using maatkit. Is it possible?
