Changes proposed in this pull request:

  • add pipe | (vertical bar) separated values option to open file.

Reason:

  • pipe | is used by many users and its one the best option character to separated values, because are rarely used in names or texts. And its also easy to overview when you dump the text file. One good explain about is: (https://modelingwithdata.org/pdfs/201-pdf.pdf)

Hi,

thanks for your contribution however I think more is required:

  • There is no menu user interface change to accommodate the import pipe file option
  • You should also consider a similar export that will need you to write an appropriate CSV dialect entry with a pipe for delimiter
  • Automated tests should be provided
