As long as you make the Filene extension .scsv
Jokes aside, we had that debate in our team way back and decided to follow the rfc and only use commas. The format is often abused, better not create more tools that do so.
- mulmen 6y agoTotally understand and respect that decision. In our case these files come from third parties. We ingest that data, grind it up, sprinkle on our own blend of 11 herbs and spices and serve it to customers. Rejecting that data because it doesn't strictly conform to the RFC makes our product less appetizing. Or we can hold our noses and accept any consistent delimiter while working with the data providers to follow the standards.
