+                        This library outputs a simple CSV file, in which cells can
+                        contain numbers or text.  You could output a CSV file without its
+                        help, but it gives a little more readability/structure to the code, and
+                        could be extended to handle more complexity.  When
+                        you invoke one of these JSP pages from your browser, you open up an Excel
+                        spreadsheet.  There's no formatting, worksheets, or anything fancy like that.
+                        So it's not strictly a competitor but it does the job.
