AFAIK, the csv module tries to mimic Excel behavior as close as possible. It has some test cases that look horrible, but that's what Excel does... I'd try actually using Excel to see what happens. Perhaps the behavior could be more configurable, like the codecs are. -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
