How to change the field delimiter in CSV attribute extract files?

When exporting block attribute values using the _ATTEXT command you can change the field delimiter character for the CSV export format (comma by default).
In your template file for attribute extract, add a line with C:DELIM d to set the d character as a delimiter. E.g.:

  
BL:NAME C012000  
BL:X N018009  
BL:Y N018009  
MYATTRIBUTE1 N018009  
MYATTRIBUTE2 N018009  
C:DELIM ;

sets semicolon as a delimiter.
