Yes -- exactly what I was looking for.

Each line is already delimited by a CR, and I can choose the column 
delimiter with a command line switch.  The only issue is if a CR gets 
returned in the results.  I don't think this will happen, even indexing 
.PDF and .DOC, because swish-e uses filters to convert these to HTML 
before indexing.
