After needing to find a small delimiter for my data format I started wondering if I could use 0x1E-0x1F?
They are part of the control codes so I thought they might do something weird?

Then you can just use a conmon delimiter like comma or semicolon or something. It’s better even as you’re less likely to have something that seems to work until your exotic delimiter pops up in the data.
Better yet, use a commonly used data format like csv or json and don’t build your own
