This module allows you to import taxonomy from a CSV (comma-separated values) file or with a copy-and-paste text.

When you want to import a vocabulary, a taxonomy or a simple list of terms in your Drupal site, you have two main choices: taxonomy_xml and taxonomy_csv.

Taxonomy xml is perfect for standardized taxonomies and vocabularies. Despite its name, it can import csv files too, but only if they are ISO 2788 formated.

So when you want to quick import a non-standardized vocabulary, for example an old thesaurus or a simple list of children, synonyms, descriptions, weights or related terms to terms, it's simpler to use taxonomy csv.

A third module exists: Taxonomy batch operations. It allows you to import a list of term by a text area, but its last version is only for Drupal 5.x. From version 6.x-3.0, taxonomy_csv integrates a text area in order to let user choose user interface he prefers.

Use at your risk. It does not tell you what it's gonna do before it's doing it, so make sure you have a backup so you can roll back if necessary.

Next major version will allow duplicate terms imports.
