Could you please let me know what reasoning you used behind converting the extension to csv and using \0 as a delimit

Hi @SCK 

 

File is still a .txt

So "\0" is none delimiter

 

csv stands for comma separated value. And now separator comma replaced with none.

 

Which will be helpful parsing.
