[ANNOUNCE] Text-CSV_XS 0.27

2007-05-31 0.27 - H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@xxxxxxxxx>

* checked with perlcritic (still works under 5.00504)
so 3-arg open cannot be used (except in the docs)
* 3-arg open in docs too
* Added a lot to the TODO list
* Some more info on using escape character (jZed)
* Mention Text::CSV_PP in README
* Added t/45_eol.t, eol tests
* Added a section about embedded newlines in the pod
* Allow \r as eol ($/) for parsing
* More docs for eol
* More eol = \r fixes, tfrayner's test case added to t/45_eol.t

2007-05-15 0.26 - H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@xxxxxxxxx>

* Add $csv->allow_undef (1) suggestion in TODO
Still have to find the best spot to document
the difference between empty string and undef
* Spell-checked the pod and fixed some typo's
* Added t/70_rt.t
- Regression for RT 24386: \t doesn't work (WFM)
- Regression and fix for RT 21530: getline () return at eof
This one still passes under perl 5.00504
- Regression for RT 18703: Fails to use quote_char of '~'
* Added t/55_combi.t for most combinations of always_quote,
sep_char, quote_char, and escape_char
* Added docs about sep_char not allowed to be either quote_char
or escape_char
* Both combine () and parse () now return FALSE id sep_char is
equal to either quote_char or escape_char. Done in XS, as it
was a slowdown of 10% when done in perl.
