What version are you running?
1.0alpha4

What's the URL of the page this enhancement relates to, if any?
NA

Describe the enhancement and the motivation for it.
I would like to have a feature to be incorporated into RB wherein, we can 
export a review report present in html format to a CSV (comma separated 
value) format which can be opened in MS-Excel or equivalent tool. This will 
help us for getting statistical data like the number of errors per file 
reviewed. And getting statistical data is easier when Excel is used than 
getting it from a html file. Thanks.

What operating system are you using? What browser?


Please provide any additional information below.

I second the support for this feature.  'Necessary to have'.

There's another bug (filed more recently, but has more discussion) on essentially this same feature. I'm going to mark this as a dup of that one.

We've been trying to figure out what would be useful to show. Can you give us a list/example of what you would want from this feature on the other bug?

Hi,
People usually give comments to the code and the end result is displayed as a html file. If the "export to csv" file is available, we can open the "csv" file using excel to generate qualitative reports like number of bugs, bug classification based on some keyword, generate pie charts and what not. "Export to CSV" will be a loved feature by quality team of every software development project that uses RB.

Hope I have given the necessary elaboration.

the CSV contents could be:
comment_no, description, reviewer_name, comment_status, comment_severity

regards,
RV
