Subject: Supported/Bundled CSV  support?
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2022 15:15:36 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <p91pmmo9o53.fsf@google.com> (raw)

The simple/innocent looking "CSV File Format " AKA Comma Separated
Values, has a surprizingly high number of quirks with respect to
quoting etc.

Languages like Python work around this with a csv module that comes
bundled; Emacs has a couple of modules out on elpa/melpa all of which
look old.

Is it perhaps time that we brought one of those up to snuff (CSV was
finally officially defined a couple of years ago via an RFC).
