If I guessed correctly that one of the above three accurately describes what is in the input file you're going to feed into this shell script in the file named Book1.csv, which one is it? If it isn't one of these three and you can't accurately describe what your input file looks like, I don't see how we can help you.

And then, what string does your C program want as its operand? Should it be a string including the backslash character newline character pairs, or a string with the backslash character newline character pairs removed. Should there be a trailing newline character in that string, or not?

And finally, what does the output from your C program look like? Will it contain any comma, backslash, single quote, double quote, or newline characters. If the output contains a newline character, is it just one at the end of the output, or are there embedded newlines? If there are embedded newlines, are they all the second character in a backslash newline character pair?

Please help us help you; answer all of the above questions explicitly!
