Could someone kindly point me in the direction of the FasterCSV rdocs?

Also, I would like to user FasterCSV to parse some csv files, as well as  
some tab delimited file. Since I have not been able to find the rdoc, I  
have  
not figured out how to tell the FasterCSV library to use ‘\t’ rather  
than  
‘,’

Thanks for the help,  
mark

Hope that helps.
