impala-shell Command-Line Option has a problem with the [--output_delimiter=character]

[#1]

Specifies the character to use as a delimiter between fields when query results are printed in plain format by the -B option. Defaults to tab ('\t'). If an output value contains the delimiter character, that field is quoted, escaped by doubling quotation marks, or both. Added in Impala 1.0.1.

My  output value contains  some ('\t')，So，I tried using  \`field\` OR “field” and so on,  But all of  them doesn't work.Does anyone know how to solve it?
