[Download-List] Field delimiters

I'm thinking that the + is a reserved character?  Could be wrong though
as I have not had a chance to try it out.

Well, part of it is 'fixed'.
The following:

field1<field2<field3<field4<field5

was produced by ...

DOWNLOAD file \
  FILE _HOLD_ hold.item \
  COMMA.CHAR "<+>" QUOTE.CHAR "" \
  OVERWRITING \
 DETAIL \
  field1 \
  field2 \
  field3 \
  field4 \
  field5


Page 38 of DOWNLOAD.pdf says that ... The value specified by COMMA.CHAR
does
not have to be a single character. The following is an acceptable use of
COMMA.CHAR:	DOWNLOAD CUSTOMERS NAME PHONE \
	
COMMA.CHAR
"<_>"

... so I'm not sure why my syntax isn't working.  Are '+>' reserved for
something else?
Anyone want to venture a guess?

Actually, this isn't working for me either. It gives me the following:

"field1"<"field2"<"field3"<"field4"<"field5"

What I would like to see is:

field1<+>field2<+>field3<+>field4<+>field5
