# NOTE some issues with these tests:
#
# The stderr regex tests don't tell us much as the CSV reader always gives that output.
# They'll cause stderr to be displayed if the CSV reader doesn't run at all,
# which is slightly better than nothing.
#
# echo doesn't normally support embedded \n characters, though somehow it has been working
# on most systems (shelltestrunner ?)
#
# The final cleanup command, chained with ;, masks hledger's exit code.
#
# We should use the csv: prefix when reading stdin, to ensure we get the CSV reader's
# error message if it fails.
#
# The "blank" and "empty" test names are switched.
#
# Test numbers in comments were wrong (now fixed).
# 1. read CSV to hledger journal format
