in reply to parse CSV

I've always used Text::CSV, I like it because I can get it working without doing a proper make install (just grabbing the .pm module*). That means I can easily through it in with a script I produce and don't have to worry about the resulting server having the module installed. After all they may be on shared hosting, and unable to do a proper make install.

    FYI: The plan is to make Text::CSV a thin wrapper over Text::CSV_XS and Text::CSV_PP and use whatever is available (in that order).

    Maintainership has already been transferred to the author of Text::CSV_PP
