Format Specifications
1. Quote Escaping Rules
When converting TSV to CSV, any field containing commas, line breaks, or double quotes is wrapped in double quotes according to RFC 4180.
2. Tab vs Comma Delimiters
TSV files use raw tab characters (\t) to separate values, preventing delimiter collision with text that contains commas.

No. All delimiter conversions execute client-side in your web browser. No text or data is uploaded to external servers.
