- Comma-separated values
- CSV is a specially formatted ASCII file. It consists
of columns which are separated by commas, and rows that
are separated by a carriage-return/linefeed. Double-quotes
are only placed around an entry if the entry contains
a comma, a double-quote character, or a carriage-return/linefeed.
Double-quote characters are escaped by placing an additional
double-quote character before the character. Numbers are
formatted with a decimal point if they require one. Some
applications apply localization rules to the data which
can cause problems with reading data from one CSV file
to another. Superbase only supports comma separators,

according to the field definition.

the field names in the Superbase file will be exported
as the first row of the file.
