I ususally do something like this:
(((FileStream readOnlyFileNamed: 'file.csv')
contentsOfEntireFile " read and close "
findTokens: String crlf) " split into lines "
reject: [:e | e isEmpty]) " lose empty lines "
collect: [:e | e findTokens: $,] " split into fields "

I have a small database containing questionnaire responses. The DB can
output the responses (mainly descriptive paragraphs) in CSV format.
Ideally, I would like to read each of the records into a collection of
some kind. I was hoping that there might be a 'fromCSV:' method, but I
haven't found one. One approach I had thought about was to edit the
text so in order to create a series of array definitions, and then paste
that into a workspace. However, that does lack a bit of elegance! So, is
there a neat way of doing this?
