in reply to Making CSV Files from Tab Delimited Files

I looked at Text::CSV_XS and may end up using that, though I still have a few things to figure out with how to do everything I listed.

The whole point about using a standard CPAN module like Text::CSV(_XS) is that someone else has already figured out how to do all the things you listed -- and that code has already been debugged and tested -- so all you need to worry about is learning to use the module correctly.

Plus, there's probably a few things you hadn't thought of yet, and there are some choices you might like to have available as options. The module will support those things too.
