+Parsing CSV files is nasty. It seems so simple, but it usually
+isn't. Thankfully Text::CSV_XS takes care of most of that nastiness
+for us.
+
+Like many modules which have to deal with all manner of nastiness and
+edge cases, however, it can be clumsy to work with in the simple case.
+
+Thus this module.
+
+We simply provide a little wrapper around Text::CSV_XS to streamline
+the common case scenario. (Or at least my common case scenario; feel
+free to write your own wrapper if this one doesn't do what you want).
