Delimiters



In the thread discussing the fact that XyWrite will accept any character
(not just a slash) as a search delimiter or change delimiter, several
people have suggested useful delimiters (ASCII 239; ASCII 15).

Another thing I like to do with delimiters is use different ones for
different tasks--that is, a different delimiter for search, global
search, and change. Then if I hit the wrong hotkey I have an additional
visual cue to know that I've got the wrong thing.

I use
	ASCII 186 (2 vertical lines) for the search delimiter
	ASCII 179 (1 vertical line) for the se *.* delimter
	ASCII 254 (blocks) for the CI and CV delimiter
	But since ASCII 254 doesn't work in Xy4, I have switched to ASCII 22
(blocks).
