MORE INFORMATION
----------------
This type does not use regex to avoid quoting problems.
So you need to specify the key and delimiteri exactly.
Delimiter can be one or more characters.
Due to shell limitations, we have some values which can not be used.
These values are:
__CDIST_HEREDOC_END_HERE_MARKER
__CDIST_INPUT_END_HERE_MARKER
