Wouldn't the csv module be a workable solution?
Yes, which is why I injected Python into the thread. The CSV module in
Python's standard library can read or write either Excel-dialect CSV
or OP's mandatory-double-quoted-string dialect.
To minimize reworking of OP's existing tools (which generate .xls or
.xlsx) and eliminate the Excel program itself (as a .xls(x)-to-.csv
translator), Python could be used to read the workbook directly (and
quite trivially), using the xlrd third-party module.
