I'm attaching an improved version with:
- changed the version from 1.0 to 0.0.20180328. This way, if upstream
ever decides to tag a version less than 1.0 we won't have troubles.
- HOMEPAGE is not needed, it already defaults to that value.
- same for EXTRACT_SUFX and MASTER_SITES
- missing license comment before PERMIT_PACKAGE
- we can avoid patching the makefile by tweaking FAKE_FLAGS to override
the makefile' BINDIR.
- indentation
- I don't think installing the project README is useful. The "know
limitations" part is surely useful, but the rest of the readme not
that much.
I don't mess with csv files often, but I see why something like this
could be useful.
btw, it could be possible (and quite easy really) to run cvsquote under
pledge("stdio rpath", NULL). The code is simple to follow, is a simple
filter after all :)
Cheers,
Omar Polo
