The Awk Programming Language, Second Edition
It's nice that everyone is supporting this, I've written a portable awk module that takes control of the parsing and it is SLOW (and a little buggy). I'm a little bummed that nobody will use it but this is truly a step in the right direction.
I guess for the people that are still using nawk, you can set up an AWK envvar so you can { awk -f $AWKU/ucsv.awk -f <(echo '{print NR, $1}') }

Need help with awk script that keeps giving me syntax errors
if you have gawkextlib, you can -i csv, you can also download this and put it in your $AWKPATH then you just -i ucsv and use the csv file as normal. if you need an array with headers let me know.

Modernizing AWK, a 45-year old language, by adding CSV support
I wrote a parser that does what -F, does but correctly, you can see that its actually very difficult. Not only that, but there are extensions to csv, some csv have a header which means that instead of $1 $2 $3 ..., you just name the field instead, which means you have to ignore the first record. there's also other things, but csv is a difficult format to parse.
