It could probably use better documentation.

For now... there's a brief reference left over from j602:
http://www.jsoftware.com/docs/help602/user/script_csv.htm

Also, there's the NB. comments that you can read if you run:
  open 'csv'

Note also that this probably requires that you have installed the
tables/csv addon. (Though, personally, I always just do (install'all')
in jconsole in any fresh J installation.)

Thanks,
