Hi Jaroslav,

many thanks for your reply.

Is your library scancsv.lua and is it described at
http://public.hajtmar.com/files/TeX/TeXperience2011/knihovna_ScanCSVlua.pdf?
(I read a previous English version ;-)).

Do you have any plans to release it as a module? Or to publish it at GitHub?

The minimal sample would be envelopes such as:
\setuppapersize[C6, landscape]
\setuppagenumbering[location=]
\starttext
Name\\
Address\\
Postcode--City\\
\stoptext

csv file would be:

Name;Address;Postcode;City;
Me;Street;0000;Here;
You;Square;9999;There;

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo
