The most important thing to know about LSL CSV, it's not traditional CSV. It is not RFC 4180.
Caveats
There are four caveats with LSL CSV.
- Spaces are trimmed from the beginning and the end of entries.
- Anything following a "<" is considered part of the same item as long as the number of ">" and "<" are unbalanced.
- All "<" and ">" are included in the output string.
- Having a ">" before a "<" has no effect on the output, having too many ">" is not an issue.
- All Commas not encapsulated in "<" ">" will be treated as deliminators.
- Any datatype containing a float value when converted to a CSV may loose precision.
<lsl>llCSV2List("<>,>,a") == ["<>", ">", "a"]; //didn't match the last ">" llCSV2List("<<>,>,a") == ["<<>,>", "a"]; //matched everything llCSV2List("<<<>,>,a") == ["<<<>,>,a"]; //didn't match the last "<"</lsl>
