`csvsimple` provides a simple *LaTeX* interface for the processing of files 
with comma separated values (CSV). `csvsimple` relies heavily on a key value 
syntax which results in an easy way of usage. Filtering and table generation 
is especially supported. Since the package is considered as a lightweight 
tool, there is no support for data sorting or data base storage.
