  What is the likelihood they would use this ~ or this ^?

  Very low; good point, I can try to use this. I also like IndieKiwi's suggestion for xml or json. I will look into those, too. Thanks, guys. (Or gals).

  I have a project that needs to load long strings of text in. They are passages of books, but I want to allow users to upload their own packs and download them in the game, so I need there to be an open way of loading up long strings of text in arrays. For example:

  TITLE \ TEXT \ CATEGORY 1 \ CATEGORY 2

  I need to allow for multiple sets of these, all downloaded and stored for offline use. Each column of data has to be separate from the other columns. Anyone have any suggestions?

  I've tried using CSV files but I cannot seem to get anything to load in correctly into an array using Rex Rainbow's CSV2Array plugin. Also, my data has commas, colons, and semicolons galore which makes for impossible delineation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
