for pablo: there are csv scanners built in context
Hans,
I don’t really need this at home, but I’m interested in this.
in addition to the previous mail, t.txt is:
first,second,third,fourth
"1","2","3","4"
"a","b","c","d"
"foo","bar""baz","boogie","xyzzy"
the code is in util-prs.lua (where all kind of parsing code lives)
if you want to use that kind of code outside context you can do
something like this:
lua mtxlibs.lua --selfmerge foo.lua
and then in your script load foo.lua
this makes it possible to use the same set of helpers in context as well
outside it (alternatively you can just use luatex as lua engine and
mtxrun as script runner which is what we mostly do); this means that the
context distribution provides all kind of means to set up workflows
I guess you mean m-database.mkiv. But I don’t have a clue on how to
handle it.
I mean, how to ignore the first line and how to make commands from the
so-called cells (A2, B5...; to use them in document combination) reading
an external file.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
