/**
  
 * Reads a source that is in comma separated format
 * (the default). One can also change the column separator from comma to tab or
 * another character, specify string enclosures, specify whether aheader row is
 * present or not and specify which attributes are to beforced to be nominal or
 * date. Can operate in batch or incremental mode. In batch mode, a buffer is
 * used to process a fixed number of rows in memory at any one time and the data
 * is dumped to a temporary file. This allows the legal values for nominal
 * attributes to be automatically determined. The final ARFF file is produced in
 * a second pass over the temporary file using the structure determined on the
 * first pass. In incremental mode, the first buffer full of rows is used to
 * determine the structure automatically. Following this all rows are read and
 * output incrementally. An error will occur if a row containing nominal values
 * not seen in the initial buffer is encountered. In this case, the size of the
 * initial buffer can be increased, or the user can explicitly provide the legal
 * values of all nominal attributes using the -L (setNominalLabelSpecs) option.
 * *
 * 

 
 * 
  
 * Valid options are:
 * 

 * 
 * 
 * -H
 *  No header row present in the data.
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -N <range>
 *  The range of attributes to force type to be NOMINAL.
 *  'first' and 'last' are accepted as well.
 *  Examples: "first-last", "1,4,5-27,50-last"
 *  (default: -none-)
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -L <nominal label spec>
 *  Optional specification of legal labels for nominal
 *  attributes. May be specified multiple times.
 *  Batch mode can determine this
 *  automatically (and so can incremental mode if
 *  the first in memory buffer load of instances
 *  contains an example of each legal value). The
 *  spec contains two parts separated by a ":". The
 *  first part can be a range of attribute indexes or
 *  a comma-separated list off attruibute names; the
 *  second part is a comma-separated list of labels. E.g
 *  "1,2,4-6:red,green,blue" or "att1,att2:red,green,blue"
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -S <range>
 *  The range of attribute to force type to be STRING.
 *  'first' and 'last' are accepted as well.
 *  Examples: "first-last", "1,4,5-27,50-last"
 *  (default: -none-)
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -D <range>
 *  The range of attribute to force type to be DATE.
 *  'first' and 'last' are accepted as well.
 *  Examples: "first-last", "1,4,5-27,50-last"
 *  (default: -none-)
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -format <date format>
 *  The date formatting string to use to parse date values.
 *  (default: "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss")
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -M <str>
 *  The string representing a missing value.
 *  (default: ?)
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -F <separator>
 *  The field separator to be used.
 *  '\t' can be used as well.
 *  (default: ',')
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -E <enclosures>
 *  The enclosure character(s) to use for strings.
 *  Specify as a comma separated list (e.g. ",' (default: ",')
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * -B <num>
 *  The size of the in memory buffer (in rows).
 *  (default: 100)
 *
