This is a command line utility that uses libcsv to parse CSV files and print the value of a given field.

$ make
$ chmod +x csvr
$ [sudo] cp csvr /usr/bin

csvr [-s <value to set>] <row> <column offset/name> [<file>] 

• row: The row offset (starting with 0) to seek
• column offset/name: The column offset, or name of the column, to seek. If a string is given, the fist row of the CSV will be treated as the header row.
• file: If no filename is supplied, parsing will be attempted on the standard input.
• -s: the value to change the field to (overwrites original file)

If the specified value exists, it will be read to the standard output.

• Fixed a bug with writing to CSV
• Fixed a segfault when no options were passed

• Added the ability to modify a field in the CSV with the -s option

• Added ability to read a specified field
