title: MySQL group_concat SEPARATOR char or ascii
body: <p>Is there a way in MySQL to define a SEPARATOR in group_concat() with a non printable sign? Like ascii 3 or something like that?</p>
  <p>i tried</p>
  <pre><code>group_concat(text SEPARATOR char(3))
  </code></pre>
  <p>and</p>
  <pre><code>group_concat(text SEPARATOR 3)
  </code></pre>
  <p>both of them doesn´t work.</p>
  <p>Maybe a way to escaping?</p>
  <p>I get long texts and i want to be sure that no printable sign will destroy my content. So i want to seperate them with a non printable sign...</p>
  <p>any ideas?</p>
