> The string name of the dialect is "excel-tab".  Hyphens
> are not
> valid characters in identifiers though, so the actual
> object
> is named "excel_tab".  When you call
> csv.get_dialect("excel-tab")
> it instantiates the csv.excel_tab class and returns that:
> 
> >>> csv.list_dialects()
> ['excel-tab', 'excel']
> >>> csv.get_dialect("excel-tab")
> <csv.excel_tab instance at 0x820b50c>
> >>> csv.excel_tab
> <class csv.excel_tab at 0x81f9f5c>
> >>> csv.get_dialect("excel-tab").__class__ ==
> csv.excel_tab
> True
