Summary

Added new parameters to Set-Content/Add-Content cmdlets so a user can specify their own delimiters when writing to files.

We will need to document new parameters -Delimiter and -NoTrailingDelimiter parameters to show new behaviour.

Details

Example 1

Write contents to file using delimiters:

> "a", "b", "c" | Set-Content -Path test.txt -Delimiter ","
> cat ./test.txt
a,b,c,

Example 2

Write contents to file using comma delimiter and remove trailing delimiter:

> "a", "b", "c" | Set-Content -Path test.txt -Delimiter "," -NoTrailingDelimiter
> cat ./test.txt
a,b,c
