* - don't re-write a SourceForge authenticated CVS root into theFred Drake2003-10-031-4/+7
| | | | | anonymous flavor unless the user asks for it on the command line - decompose SourceForge authenticated CVS roots correctly
* Make the fieldnames argument optional in the DictReader. If self.fieldnamesSkip Montanaro2003-10-031-4/+15
| | | | | | | | | is None, the next row read is used as the fieldnames. In the common case, this means the programmer doesn't need to know the fieldnames ahead of time. The first row of the file will be used. In the uncommon case, this means the programmer can set the reader's fieldnames attribute to None at any time and have the next row read as the next set of fieldnames, so a csv file can contain several "sections", each with different fieldnames.
