                     15:      _D_e_l_a_m_c delaminates an input file into several output files
                     16:      according to the separator characters specified by the cccchhhhaaaarrrrssss
                     17:      argument following the ----tttt flag.  _D_e_l_a_m_c reads iiiinnnnffffiiiilllleeee and
                     18:      writes the fields in each line to the corresponding output
                     19:      files as individual lines. If no data occurs in the speci-
                     20:      fied position for a given input line an empty output line is
                     21:      written. This insures that all output files contain the same
                     22:      number of lines as the input file.
                     23: 
                     24:      If `-' is used for iiiinnnnffffiiiilllleeee, the standard input is read.  If
                     25:      `-' is used as an output file name, the corresponding field
                     26:      is written to the standard output. If the ----tttt flag is not
                     27:      used, an ascii horizontal tab character is assumed as the
                     28:      default field separator.
                     29: 
                     30:      The use of _d_e_l_a_m_c is illustrated by the following examples.

                     33: 
                     34:      reads the file _t_s_t._a_s_m and writes the fields, each of which
                     35:      is separated by a tab character, to the output files _l_a_b_e_l_s,
                     36:      _o_p_c_o_d_e_s, and _o_p_e_r_a_n_d_s.
                     37:

                     39: 
                     40:      reads the file _s_c_o_r_e_s and writes the fields, each of which
                     41:      is separated by a colon, to the indicated output files.
                     42:

                     44: 
                     45:      reads the file _o_l_d_a_t_a and separates the fields using either
                     46:      a comma, a colon, or a semicolon.
                     47: 
                     48: NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEESSSS
                     49:      The functionality of the Software Tools _d_e_l_a_m has been
                     50:      divided. _D_e_l_a_m_c differs from the Tools syntax by allowing a
                     51:      set of separation characters to be specified.
