+uncsv (convert to or from CSV streams)
+
+uncsv is a filter command converting the lines of a CSV file into
+non-escaped, non-quoted delimited file (pipe by default). This program
+will error out if it encounters a character matching the delimiter, it
+will also replace the carriage return and new-line characters found in
+quoted values allowing you to use awk to play with your CSVs.
+
+csv is the opposite of this command. It takes an unquoted stream of
+values, separated by the delimiter of your choice (default: pipe '|')
+and produces a "standard" CSV file.
