It lets the user specify the delimiter via one of two command-line options - an ASCII code or an ASCII character. As Unix filters tend to do, it can operate either on standard input or on input filenames given as command-line arguments. In the case of multiple inputs via files, each input goes to a separate PDF output file.</p>

Revision 7. </p> <p>In <em>The Art of Unix Programming</em>, Eric S. Raymond describes a data file metaformat based on RFC 822. [http://www.faqs.org/docs/artu/ch05s02.html#id2902039] This is a simple parser for that format.</p>
