Hello, I’ve written a new (and fifth) episode on why the CSV standard library is broken (and how to fix it). Let’s have a look at quotes and leading and trailing spaces: Escaping the Stray Quote Error Hell - Do You Want Single, Double, or French Quotes With That Comma? Questions and comments welcome. Cheers. Prost. PS: If you want to see other (more) CSV formats / dialects pre-configured and supported “out-of-the-box” in the new csv reader, please tell.
