Alternate record delimiter

Post by bsnuggs »

I'm trying to read a CSV that has some large fields in it that have LF's. The programs treats the LFs as record delimiters. Can I pass a parameter to a function that forces it to use CR+LF as the record delimiter?

Right, it treats the LF as the delimiter. If there's a CR found, it just pretends it's not there.

You'd have to modify the code to work differently... since it's open source, you're able to do that.
