Allow to set output delimiter about clipster HOT 4 CLOSED

See #38

from clipster.

Hi,

Thanks for your issue and PR - this is definitely a feature that's worth adding to clipster.

I decided that the marker option isn't quite the right way to go. Iit provides no way to specify a separator without the existing delim - for example if the clipboard contains hello and world you can't specify a space as the marker to get hello world - you'll always get some newlines/nuls.

Instead I have created a -m|--delim option which defaults to \n. This can be overridden with the marker, and the person setting the marker can decide whether or not to use newlines at that point. (--nul still works by just setting delim to \0.

Note: In order to pass in special characters on the command-line, you have to work round the shell wanting to consume them. In bash this can be done by using the following syntax: --delim $'\n>>>>\n' - note the single quotes.

I've pushed this change to a delim branch: 78107a1

Please grab this branch and test it out and let me know if it does what you're looking for?

Thanks!
