This is what makes learning AppleScript so much fun (NOT!) -- it
supposedly allows coding in English, but the grammar is wrong. Until
now, I *assumed* multiple delimiters could be set -- the last time I
checked, "delimiters" was plural!
Worse, why does it confuse the issue even more by reporting all of
the delimiters if it only uses one?
You've just saved me hours of future debugging. Oh well, count the
day lost you don't learn something. With AppleScript, I'm set for
life. :-)
