Module: Text::CSV_XS Description: Text::CSV_XS provides facilities for the composition and decomposition of comma-separated values. An instance of the Text::CSV_XS class can combine fields into a CSV string and parse a CSV string into fields. Copying: Copyright (c) 2007-2012 H.Merijn Brand. All rights reserved.

Build/Installation: Standard build/installation: perl Makefile.PL make test make install Author: H.Merijn Brand Jochen Wiedmann Interface design by Alan Citterman A pure-perl version is being maintained by Makamaka Hannyaharamitu as Text::CSV_PP, which tries to follow Text::CSV_XS very closely. Text::CSV_PP is bundled in Text::CSV, which now is a wrapper module over Text::CSV_XS and Text::CSV_PP that will select Text::CSV_XS if available, and otherwise use Text::PP.
