Opposite of SQL*Loader

I am familiar with the Sybase utility bcp (bulk copy) which can be used to copy tab-delimited files of data into or out of a Sybase table.

I would like to do the same thing in Oracle. From what I've read, SQL*Loader will achieve this handily and with _much_ more flexibility when I want to load data INTO an Oracle table.

What do I use to bulk copy data OUT OF an Oracle table?

I understand that I could write a fairly simple piece of code to do this, but I find it hard to believe that there isn't a utility like SQL*Loader for drawing data out of an Oracle table.
