Alistair, I've forked your project to try to fix some unicode bugs by using the codecs library, eg:

http://code.activestate.com/recipes/577778-correctly-reading-csv-files-in-arbitrary-encodings/

Let me know if this is something you've already dealt with but I'm simply missing a parameter when I import CSV files that produces decode errors, eg: UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 4: ordinal not in range(128)

Hi Peder, can you live without setuptools? I've tried to keep petl free of any dependencies other than the Python standard modules. It's a small thing but hopefully ensures the simplest possible installation across all platforms. Thanks, Alistair.

Ah, I understand. Yes of course.
