There exists (in CPAN) a Text-CSV perl module. From its documentation:
This module is based upon a working definition of CSV
format which may not be the most general.
1 Allowable characters within a CSV field include 0x09
(tab) and the inclusive range of 0x20 (space) through
0x7E (tilde).
2 A field within CSV may be surrounded by double-quotes.
3 A field within CSV must be surrounded by double-quotes
to contain a comma.
4 A field within CSV must be surrounded by double-quotes
to contain an embedded double-quote, represented by a
pair of consecutive double-quotes.
5 A CSV string may be terminated by 0x0A (line feed) or
by 0x0D,0x0A (carriage return, line feed).
