RFC 4180 compliance

Closed this issue · 0 comments

According to RFC 4180, csv2xml shouldn't rely on "; to identify the end of a field within quotation marks, instead, quotation marks can be expected to be escaped by "" (or duplication of any field content delimiter), so ""; wouldn't be identified as the end of a field. Furthermore, it seems the use of CRLF is recommended instead of only LF. If input files do just contain LFs, external programs might be needed to do a conversion, csv2xml might abort with an error.
