+Introduction</A>
+</H1>
+ The <TT>csvtools</TT> package allows you to repeatedly perform
+ a set of LaTeX commands on data in each row
+ of a comma separated variable (CSV) file.
+ This can be used for mail merging, generating
+ tables etc.
+
+<P>
+As from version 1.2, you can specify a different separator.
+To change the separator, use the command:
+<BR>
+<BR><TT>&#92;setcsvseparator</TT>{<I>separator</I>}
+<BR>
+<BR>
+For example, if your data is separated by colons instead of
+commas, do:
+<PRE>
+\setcsvseparator{:}
+</PRE>
+If your separator occurs within an entry, the entry must be
+enclosed in double quotes, for example:
+<PRE>
+Name,Address,Telephone
+A.N. Other,"1 The Street,The Town",0123456789
+</PRE>
+Be careful of T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X special characters occuring within a CSV
+file, for example:
+<PRE>
+Name,Address,Telephone
+Jack \&amp; Jill,"2 The Street,The Town",0123456789
+</PRE>
+
+<P>
+
+<H1><A NAME="SECTION00040000000000000000">
+Mail Merging and Similar Applications</A>
+</H1>
+
+<P>
+
+ <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile</TT>[<I>n</I>]{<I>filename</I>}{<I>text</I>}
+<BR> <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile*</TT>[<I>n</I>]{<I>filename</I>}{<I>text</I>}
+<BR>
+<BR>
+Letters can be generated using data given in
+ each line from <I>filename</I>.
+ If the CSV file contains a header row, the
+ unstarred version of <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile</TT> should
+ be used, otherwise the starred version <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile*</TT>
+ should be used. The optional argument <I>n</I>
+ specifies on which line the actual data (not header line)
+ starts. The unstarred version defaults to line 2
+ (the header row is always assumed to be on line 1)
+ and the starred version defaults to 1.
+
+<P>
+With the unstarred version, the entries in the header row
+ are used to generate commands of the form
+ <TT>&#92;insert</TT><I>identifier</I><A NAME="tex2html1"
+ HREF="#foot869"><SUP>1</SUP></A> to access corresponding elements
+ in the row currently being processed. For example,
+ suppose the first line of the CSV file looks like:
+<PRE>
+Name,Address,Time,Date
+</PRE>
+ then the commands <TT>&#92;insertName</TT>, <TT>&#92;insertAddress</TT>,
+ <TT>&#92;insertTime</TT> and <TT>&#92;insertDate</TT> are
+ created, allowing you to use the entries in the first,
+ second, third and fourth columns of the current row.
+ If the header text contains non-alphabetical characters,
+ e.g. <TT>Full Name</TT>, then you will need to use
+ <TT>&#92;insertbyname{</TT><I>text</I><TT>}</TT>,
+ e.g. <code>\insertbyname{Full Name}</code>.
+
+<P>
+Alternatively, you can use the
+<TT>&#92;field</TT>{<I>col</I>} command, where
+<I>col</I> is the column number of the entry, so <code>\field{1}</code>
+indicates the first entry in the current row and <code>\field{2}</code>
+indicates the second entry in the current row.

+Mr A. N. Other,2 The Road\\The Town\\AB1 2XY,15.30,11th May 2004

+</PRE>
+ Note that you could also use <code>\insertbyname{Name}</code> etc instead

+Pie Charts (csvpie.sty)</A>
+</H1>
+
+<P>
+If you want to create a pie chart from data stored in a CSV file,
+you can use the <TT>csvpie</TT> package, distributed with the
+<TT>csvtools</TT> package. A basic pie chart can be created
+using the command:
+<BR>
+<BR>
+<TT>&#92;csvpiechart</TT>[<I>options</I>]{<I>variable</I>}{<I>filename</I>}
+<BR>
+<BR>
+where <I>filename</I> is the name of the CSV file containing the
+data, and <I>variable</I> is the command indicating the entry that
+contains the value for the given segment.
+The starred version of <TT>&#92;csvpiechart</TT> should be used if
+the CSV file has no header row.
+
+<P>
+The pie charts have ``inner'' labels on the segment, and
+``outer'' labels outside the chart. The labels are given by the
+commands <TT>&#92;csvpieinnerlabel</TT>
+and <TT>&#92;csvpieouterlabel</TT>.
+The default definitions are:
+<PRE>
+\newcommand{\csvpieouterlabel}{\field{1}}
+\newcommand{\csvpieinnerlabel}{\field{2}\%}
+</PRE>
+This assumes that the second column contains the data, and the
+first column contains a description, but can be redefined
+as necessary.
+
+<P>
+The pie chart display can be modified using the optional
+argument to <TT>&#92;csvpiechart</TT>.
+This argument should be a <I>key</I>=<I>value</I> list.
+The available keys are as follows:
+<DL>
+<DT><STRONG>start</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This should be an integer specifying the starting angle
+of the first segment. This is 0 by default.
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>total</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This should be an integer specifying the sum of all
+the segment values. This is 100 by default.
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>radius</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This should be a length specifying the radius of the
+pie chart. (Default: 2cm)
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>inner</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This should be a fraction specifying the relative distance
+along the radius to start the inner label. (Default: 0.25)
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>outer</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This should be a fraction specifying the relative distance
+along the radius to start the outer label. (Default: 1.25)
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>cutaway</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This should be a comma-separated list of numbers
+corresponding to the segments that should be cut away from the
+rest of the pie chart. Since the value may contain commas, the value
+should always be enclosed in braces. Ranges may also be used.
+If a range is used, all the segments in the given range are
+kept together, so, for example, <code>cutaway={1,2}</code> will separate
+the first two segments from the pie chart, and the two segments
+will also be separated from each other, whereas <code>cutaway={1-2}</code>
+will separate the first two segments from the pie chart, but will
+keep the two segments together.
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>offset</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This should be a fraction specifying the
+relative distance along the radius to shift the cut away
+segments. (Default: 0.1)
+
+<P>
+</DD>
+<DT><STRONG>firstrow</STRONG></DT>
+<DD>This should be the number of the first row
+containing the actual data. This is equivalent to the optional
+argument of <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile</TT> or <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile*</TT>.
+</DD>
+</DL>
+
+<P>
+Note that T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X performs integer arithmetic. Although the CSV
+file may contain decimal numbers, rounding will occur when
+constructing the pie charts.
+
+<P>
+The colours for the pie chart segments can be set using the
+command:
+<BR>
+<BR><TT>&#92;csvpiesegmentcol</TT>{<I>n</I>}{<I>colour</I>}
+<BR>
+<BR>
+where <I>n</I> is the segment number, and <I>colour</I> is a
+defined colour name. For example, if you want the first segment
+in the pie chart to be yellow, do:
+<PRE>
+\csvpiesegmentcol{1}{yellow}
+</PRE>
+There are 8 predefined segment colours, if your pie chart has
+more than 8 segments, you will need to specify the remainder.
+
+<P>
+You can obtain the colour name for a given segment
+using:
+<BR>
+<BR><TT>&#92;csvpiesegcolname</TT>{<I>n</I>}
+<BR>
+<BR>
+where <I>n</I> is the segment number. The <TT>&#92;csvpiechart</TT>
+command uses <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile</TT>, so the <TT>csvrownumber</TT>
+counter can be used. This means that you can change the text
+colour of the outer label to match the segment. For example:
+<PRE>
+\renewcommand{\csvpieouterlabel}{%
+\color{\csvpiesegcolname{\value{csvrownumber}}}\field{2}}
+</PRE>
+Note that <TT>&#92;value</TT> must be used since <I>n</I> has to be
+a number.
+
+<P>
+If you want grey pie charts, either use the <TT>monochrome</TT>
+package option:
+<PRE>
+\usepackage[monochrome]{csvpie}
+</PRE>
+or use the command <TT>&#92;colorpiechartfalse</TT> prior to using <TT>&#92;csvpiechart</TT>.

+do something like:
+<PRE>
+\sortapplyCSVfile[sort=alphabetical,
+variable={\insertSurname,\insertbyname{First Name}}]{unsorted.csv}{%
+\insertSurname, \insertbyname{First Name}. Age: \insertAge\par}
+</PRE>
+As with <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile</TT>, you must use <TT>&#92;field</TT> if
+you use the starred version:
+<PRE>
+\sortapplyCSVfile*[sort=alphabetical,
+variable={\field{2},\field{1}}]{unsorted.csv}{%
+\field{2}, \field{1}. Age: \field{3}\par}
+</PRE>
+
+<P>
+The commands:
+<BR>
+<BR>
+<TT>&#92;sortCSVtotabular</TT>optionsfilenamecol-specfirst rowall but last rowlast row
+<BR>
+<TT>&#92;sortCSVtolongtable</TT>optionsfilenamecol-specfirst rowall but last rowlast row
+<BR>
+Are analogous to <TT>&#92;CSVtotabular</TT> and <TT>&#92;CSVtolongtable</TT>,
+where, again, <I>options</I> is a list of key=value pairs, the same
+as <TT>&#92;sortapplyCSVfile</TT>. Using the same example data as above,
+the following command will sort the data according to age (in
+numerical order) and place in a tabular environment:
+<PRE>
+\sortCSVtotabular[sort=numerical,variable=\insertAge]{unsorted.csv}{llr}{%
+\bfseries Surname &amp; \bfseries First Name &amp; \bfseries Age\\}{%
+\insertSurname &amp; \insertbyname{First Name} &amp; \insertAge\\}{%
+\insertSurname &amp; \insertbyname{First Name} &amp; \insertAge}
+</PRE>
+
+<P>
+Note that the counter <TT>csvlinenum</TT> has no meaning in the
+commands provided by the <TT>csvsort</TT> package. The
+<TT>csvrownumber</TT> counter corresponds to the sorted data row.

+Suppose you have several large CSV files, and you have included

+<TT>&#92;CSVtolongtable</TT>, <TT>&#92;CSVtotabular</TT> or
+<TT>&#92;csvpiechart</TT>, which has
+made life so much easier for you, but you are now required by a
+journal to submit your source code in a single <TT>.tex</TT> file.
+ They don't want all your CSV files, so what do you do? If you
+have Perl installed on your system you can use the
+<TT>csvtools.pl</TT> Perl script. This has the following syntax:
+<BR>
+<BR> <TT>csvtools.pl</TT> <I>in-file</I> <I>out-file</I>
+<BR>
+<BR>
+where <I>in-file</I> is the name of your file that contains the
+<TT>&#92;applyCSVfile</TT>, <TT>&#92;CSVtotabular</TT> etc
+ commands, and <I>out-file</I> is a new file which will be created by <TT>csvtools.pl</TT>. This new
+ file will be the same as <I>in-file</I> except that all
+occurances of <TT>&#92;applyCSVfile</TT>, <TT>&#92;CSVtolongtable</TT>,
+<TT>&#92;CSVtotabular</TT> and <TT>&#92;csvpiechart</TT> will be replaced

+ For example, the T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X commands <TT>&#92;insert</TT> and
+<TT>&#92;insertpenalties</TT> already exist, so a blank header or a
+header named <TT>penalties</TT> would cause problems. (These two

+<TT>&#92;CSVtolongtable</TT>, <TT>csvrownumber</TT> refers to the
