|
<li/> As of early May 2015 the single most important to-do items are support
|
|
for numerical and reverse sort, and quantiles/median/mode in <tt>stats1</tt>.
|
|
|
|
<li/> Miller’s record, field, and pair separators can only be single
|
|
characters (e.g. newline, comma, equals sign), optionally allowing repeats on
|
|
input (e.g. multiple spaces treated as one). It would be nice if strings were
|
|
supported, e.g. <tt>"\n\n"</tt> paragraph-oriented record separation, or mix of
|
|
space and tab for field separation.
|
|
|
|
<li/> Quoting isn’t supported in CSV. For example, Miller splits
|
|
<tt>a,"b,c",d</tt> as <tt>a</tt> then <tt>"b</tt> then <tt>c"</tt> then
|
|
<tt>d</tt>.
|
|
|
|
<li/> String-oriented functions such as <tt>sub</tt>, and Miller’s
|
|
<tt>filter</tt> could be made far more powerful if a regular-expression library
|
|
were included.
