Hi all, most of modules assume that separator is limited to one character. Recently I have added to libgis G_option_to_separator() which gets separator character from the option [1]. Some of modules also accepts more characters as separator. Maybe it's good time to consolidate it. The question is - should be separator limited to one character or not. I would say that for horizontal separator one char should be enough. In some cases (eg. vertical separator in `db.select`) more characters (`char *`) as a separator also make sense. If we limit separator to one character, we need to handle such cases separately, eg. by adding G_option_to_separator_as_string().
What do you think?
