I'm trying to tag my text with a delimiter at specific places that will be used later for parsing. I want to use a delimiter character that is least frequently used. I'm currently looking at the "\2" or the U+0002 character. Is that safe enough to use? What other suggestions are there? The text is unicode and will have both english and non-english characters.
A want to use a character that can still be "exploded()" by PHP.
Edit:
Also I want to be able to display this piece of text on screen (to the browser) and the delimiter will be "invisible" to the user. I can definitely use a str_replace() to get rid of visible delimiters, but if there are good invisible delimiters, then no such processing is needed.
