In my view the demarcator is a good start. A header and footer could be
added later or even just a header could be added and the demarcator could be
considered the footer. Something like that.
However, what I do think needs to be considered now is adding a way for the
character set of the demarcator to be expressed explicitly. Right now it calls
demarcator.getBytes() and that will result in different behavior on different
platforms and such string to byte cases always cause issues when not explicit.
Easy change for sure. Could also allow the user to supply a file containing
bytes as an another option as well. Anyway - would do the simplest approach
now which gets this processor in circulation then let usage dictate next steps.
Thanks
