Topic: User specified delimiters
User specified delimiters
Is there any plan to include the option for a user specified delimiter in the Open File - Text - Configure Delimitor and Quotations area? I receive data with a variety of delimiters, and it would be helpful if I don't have to convert it first before I can analyze. BTW - I love this program!
Jo lisa,
Yes this features is described in issue #230. The guy (michaelwc) who was in charge of it has been idle for some time now so I suspect development has been suspended though. It's not a hard one to fix though so maybe you'd be interested in coding a bit yourself?
Glad you love it ;-)

Hello,
I do not know how to code in Java, but in Perl, that's easy : just use the two following lines in your Perl code :
$/="mydelimiter_at_reading";
$\="mydelimiter_at_writing";
Be careful of using "chomp" and "split" with such delimiters...
