csvquote allows UNIX tools to work properly with quoted fields that contain delimiters inside the data. It is a simple translation tool that temporarily replaces the special characters occurring inside quotes with harmless non-printing characters. You do it as a first step in the pipeline, then do the regular operations using UNIX tools, and the last step of of the pipeline restores those troublesome characters back inside the data fields.
