Hi. I would like to work on this.
Just one thing. I've been looking at the code and I still don't understand why
there is a DEFAULT_VALUE_DELIMITER. I can not find in the documentation
anything about a default value for properties. For example, if I run
{{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.lookup.MainInputArgumentsLookupTest}} with the
command line {{--file foo.txt}} and the following pattern layout:
{code}
%d [%t] [${main:1}][${main:-1}][${main:--file}][${main:v:-bar}] %-5level:
%msg%n%throwable
{code}
The output is:
{code}
2018-03-12 18:04:00,962 [main] [foo.txt][1][-file][bar] ERROR: this is an error
message
{code}
[bar] is ok because I didn't provide a value in the command line. However I can
not find a similar example in the documentation.
