[REBOL] Re: Editing CSV files...

Hi David,
<< Not unless I'm missing `the point' in some big way. Editing CSV files is
surely nothing like
editing text files, even if CSVs are just `made out of text'. The essential
idea of CSVs is, of
course, that the commas separate the values of `variables', and to work on
them you want to present
them in such a way in an extended representation that would be not unlike a
`spreadsheet' although---in
most cases---one deals primarily with text, not numeric values. >>
Sorry, I didn't catch that you wanted to edit them by column/field, and not
just as plain files. I'm too new to rebol to just whip up an example, though
some steps (like parsing the data) will be simple, coming up with a dynamic
layout for editing purposes is a bit beyond my current skill level.<g>
