Notes
The [Files] Delimiter Convert module is similar to some other modules in that they help with easily dealing with legacy file formats. Specifically, this module helps with files that might export data from an older system, but might use the wrong type of field delimiters that will work with the other tools you are sending the files to. This allows for an easy way to modify these types of files easily for proper processing by other systems.
