The comparison to street photography is very apt. My blogs are usually a snapshot of how I feel at a given moment in time. Even if they're just technical posts, they often reflect my understanding when I wrote them. It's also fun

What if you had constraints on the CSV files? Suppose you knew that they don't contain spaces, for example. In that case, I don't see the problem with using UNIX tools.
