CSVReader/Writer

CSVReader/Writer: Java classes you can use standalone or embed in your own programs to Read, write, align and pack comma, tab and semicolon- separated variable files, commonly known as CSV files. It consists of a four Java classes CSVReader CSVWriter, CSVAlign and CSVPack for reading and writing CSV (Comma Separated Value) formatted files. Also handles tab-separated and semicolon-separated files. This is the format use by Microsoft Word and other Microsoft products. This version does not support # embedded comments. Note that CSV files are perhaps 10 times slower to process than binary files. They are for data interchange with other languages or when human-readibility or editability is important. If you want speed, use binary format files, e.g. DataInputStream or possibly the convenient but slower ObjectInputStream. CSVAlign aligns the fields in columns for easier proofreading. java com.mindprod.csv.CSVAlign somefile.csv CSVTab2Comma converts a tab-separated file to a comma-separated one. java com.mindprod.csv.CSVTab2Comma somefile.csv CSVPack removes all unecessary spaces to make at CSV file as compact as possible. java com.mindprod.csv.CSVPack somefile.csv
