Pipe Delimiter Support for ACS Data Transfer

The Data transfer supports different formats, like .txt, .csv, etc. Add the pipe delimiter (|) which is missing, it is quite popular. It could be ".psv" file type.


Use Case:

Add "Pile Delimiter" (|) to the output client file options, on the Data Transfer for the CLDownload plug-in. It will provide an option for scheduled job scripts.
