There is another question for me, if the separator we passed contains "\n"
string , the argument the cmd receives will need to tranfer to '\n' character
instead to make sure it's a linebreak but not a "\n" instead.

So maybe like:

If the above is understood correctly, is there an api that handles escape
characters already in the existing code (I haven't found one so far, so I need
to confirm and replace it if there is one). In addition, the insert_separator
function above handles three special characters \t\n\r. Do we need more?

Thanks
