Created attachment 174860 [details] [review] Bug 38497: Denote delimiter in report csv
To test: 1- set delimiter to something other than comma 2- run and download report as CSV, try to open in Excel, it doesn't recognize your delimiter 3- apply patch 4- repeat 2, now it does recognize your delimiter
Proof of concept, but not setting to NSO. This "sep=" function seems to have pretty spotty implementation (Excel and LibreOffice do it, Numbers does not). And in LibreOffice you end up with a first row that just says "sep=". Additionally, what I've written here breaks if you're using / as you delimiter. That slash ends up escaping the \ of the "\n" that follows it. I had enough other misgivings that I didn't pursue a fix for this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.
