the following one-liner:
perl -nlaF/,/ -e 'length($F[10]) < 7 and print' test.csv
Is parsing csv with a split not a crime in the same category as parsing html with regexes?
After all the fields might contain escaped delimiters...
Here another attempt using Text::CSV_XS that processes the file line-by-line (Tux's solution slurps with my not be good for very large files):
perl -MText::CSV_XS=csv -ne 'print if length(csv(in => \$_)->[0]->[10]) > 6'

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
