CSV and # buffer

Posted by Jim Guerber on July 15, 2008 at 15:28:56:

You may be happy to hear that I implemented CSV formatting to/from # buffer. Remember that the console and # buffer share the same i/o buffer, but CSV processing happens with # file only.

Comet turns off CSV mode for # file each time it is used. So, you must turn it on each time you want to use it.

file(#)CSV
print 'xxx'
print(#)'abc';123;'def';456
input(#)a$

print(#)'"abc",123,def,456'
file(#)CSV
input(#)a$;b$;c$;d$

results:
a$ = abc
b$ = 123
c$ = def
d$ = 456

This feature will be available beginning in Comet 2008 release 393.
