Re: BBEdit Grep: Find column of data in CSV

[Rich Siegel]

If the file is well-formed CSV and the language setting is 
"Comma-Separated Values" (or the file's name ends in ".csv"), you can 
use the "Columns" submenu on the Edit menu to do things. This includes 
putting the insertion point in the fourth column and selecting "Copy 
Column".

Enjoy,
R.
