I have a number of local TSV files to ingest with Meltano in Postgres. I think tap-csv does not support TSV am I right? In that case what is any other alternative?

There is the in-development
tap-universal-file
https://github.com/MeltanoLabs/tap-universal-file that appears to support tsv
a
I saw it but I think it is not insallable, I get
$ meltano add extractor tap-universal-file Extractor 'tap-universal-file' is not known to Meltano. Check https://hub.meltano.com/ for available plugins.
does it mean I need to install it manually?
any alternative?

There is some guidance on installing custom plugins here: https://docs.meltano.com/guide/plugin-management#custom-plugins

Thank you very much
tap-spreadsheets-anywhere does exactly what I needed
