one way to handle commas in quotes strings in CSV files -- of course
if your data has angle brackets in it, or form feeds, you'll need a
different three characters.
while (<>){
while (/"/){
m/[<>\f]/ and die "ANGLE BRACKET OR FF IN INPUT! [$_]";
s/"/</; s/"/>/ or die "unpaired quotes in [$_]";
1 while s/<(.*?),(.*?)>/<$1\f$2>/;
s/[<>]//g;
};
my @line = split ',',$_;
s/\f/,/g for @line;
...
};

"During his first performance of the song he received one of the
highest honors you can achieve in New York’s underground rap scene:
audience members touched his sneakers after a few of the more
particularly tight lines." -- Cal Newport
