Add support for --csv (which Gawk and onetrueawk are adding)
benhoyt opened this issue · comments
Gawk and BWK's onetrueawk are adding a --csv
option (for the second edition of The AWK Programming Language), which I believe is equivalent to GoAWK's -i csv
. We should confirm that and then add support for this argument to GoAWK for compatibility. Arnold said:
In particular:
- Quoted fields are handled
- Including embedded CR-LF or CR or LF
- The record can be terminated by CR-LF or just LF
- In all cases, CR-LF becomes just LF by the time gawk sees the data
