Line feeds in quoted fields are not parsed properly in read_dsv

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Input file:

Test|Test2|"
"|Test 3

Expected output:

"Test","Test2","
","Test 3"

Actual Output:

"Test","Test2",""""
"""","Test 3"

In DSV files, in CSVfix and elsewhere, the linefeed is always the record 
terminator - it cannot appear within a record.

Outlook produces fields that contain linefeeds. They are created by exporting 
contacts to comma separated files. The comments fields contain line feeds and 
those are placed in the file, causing import/conversion to fail.
Of course, it's up to you to ignore the market leader.

CSVfix supports linefieeds in CSV files, but not in DSV ones. If you want to 
discuss this further, please use the support group at
