When testing, I was able to reproduce what looks like a bug in the delimiter selecting.
If I run the simple.csv file included with the code, I get:
./gocsv view test-files/simple.csv
+----------------------------+-----------------+
| Name | Website |
+----------------------------+-----------------+
| DataFox Intelligence, Inc. | www.datafox.com |
+----------------------------+-----------------+
If I create a copy of simple.csv as simple.tsv, replacing the column commas with tabs, I get an error.
./gocsv view test-files/simple.tsv
Error: parse error on line 2, column 27: extraneous or missing " in quoted-field
The file simple.tsv is just a copy of simple.csv but with tabs instead of commas.
If I remove the quotes, I get
./gocsv view test-files/simple2.tsv
Error: record on line 2: wrong number of fields
If I remove the quotes and comma, I get success with a tab delimited file.
./gocsv view test-files/simple3.tsv
