When parsing CSV with Text::CSV_XS or Text::CSV don't specify the eol attribute at all, and getline () most likely will do-the-right-thing.

open my $fh, "<", $file or die "$file: $!";
# Don't use auto_diag on older Text::CSV_XS
my $csv_in  = Text::CSV_XS->new ({ binary => 1, auto_diag => 1 });
my $csv_out = Text::CSV_XS->new ({ binary => 1, sep_char  => "\t", eol
+ => $/ });
while (my $row = $csv->getline ($fh)) {
    $csv_out->print (*STDOUT, [ @{$row}[2, 3, 0, 4] ]);
    }
$csv->eof () or $csv->error_diag (); # Not needed with auto_diag
close $fh;

update: filled in the correct output syntax for a array-ref-slice

Important update: I was wrong. A single \r is not a valid line ending in the default configuration according to the CSV specs. In that case you'd have to specify that with eol => "\r". I will see if I can make it legal if the system $/ already is a "\r".


Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
