# This script reads a csv-table (file name.csv) and converts it into
# a LyX-table for versions 1.5.0 and higher (LyX table format 276).
# It uses Python's csv module for parsing.
# The original csv2lyx was witten by Antonio Gulino <antonio.gulino@tin.it>
# in Perl for LyX 1.x and modified for LyX table format 276 by the author.
