Delimiters

Hello,

While the list doesn't specify which delimiters to give people some freedom, there are some that will be reserved by the programming language and can't easily be used. I am assuming pipe is one of these. We should probably put some limits on the "DELIM" as to avoid such issues. Thanks for your feedback.
