Hi fellow monks

Is there any way we can put line feed (\n) into a content in a CSV created by Text::CSV?

I know the documentation said that 'A CSV string may be terminated by 0x0A (line feed) or by 0x0D,0x0A (carriage return, line feed)'. However, the wikipedia definition of CSV mentions that 'a line break within an element must be preserved'. Although wikipedia is not the authority that set the CSV standard (if there is the CSV standard), I'd like to know whether a workaround exists to insert a line feed (\n) in a CSV field using Text::CSV. Can anyone point me somewhere?

Thank you
