 CSV files provide a high degree of flexibility and can be used universally for all kind of data.
 This led to a variety of CSV derivatives like semicolon or pipe separated values, which share the common format but make use of a different separator.
 
-The plugin supports project specific separator setting.
-New separators can be added fairly easy in the parser definition of the source code.
+The plugin supports file-specific separator settings.
+Predefined separators, like Comma (,), semicolon (;), colon (:), tab (↹) and pipe (|), come with a precompiled lexer providing the best performance for working with CSV. 
+
+Since version 2.11.0, this plugin additionally comes with a runtime lexer implementation to support freely chosen separator. 
 
 #### TSV/PSV
 
-Comma (,), semicolon (;), tab (↹) and pipe (|) can be explicitly set as a separator for CSV files.
-Additionally the file types TSV (Tab-Separated-Values) and PSV (Pipe-Separated-Values) were introduced as a kind of CSV language.
+A different separator can be chosen for each CSV file. 
+
+Additionally, the file types TSV (Tab-Separated-Values) and PSV (Pipe-Separated-Values) were introduced as a kind of CSV language.
 For TSV and PSV files the same formatter and code style settings are applied as for CSV itself, but the separator is considered to be a tab or a pipe respectively.
 All functionality that is available for plain CSV files (inspections, intentions, structure view, etc.) can be used for TSV and PSV as well.

-## FAQ
-
-> Why can't I choose the separator freely?
-
-Having clearly defined symbols enables the syntax parser and language lexer to do its job properly.
-The code for those is generated during build time by using the [Grammar-Kit](https://github.com/JetBrains/Grammar-Kit).
-Adding a new kind of separator during development is fairly easy (please feel free to request a new commonly used one) in comparison to the implementation effort and usefulness of a freely defined separator.
