For read operations, the delimiter separates the contents of the file into rows and columns of a table. For write operations, the delimiter indicates the end of a value in a table row and column. Data passes the delimiter to the FFI as a Net. Data uses the new-line character as the delimiter and ignores any requested delimiter. Undesirable changes to a file can occur if you use a different delimiter for write operations than for read operations.
Data writes the file with the new delimiter.
The maximum length of a delimiter is 256 characters.
