Not in the case of my Mac gui crash. Exact same command argument  
order (in gui):

fs=|   + different number of fields in different records (i.e., data  
file format bad) = crash TclTk
fs=|   + same number of fields in all records (i.e., data file format  
good) = OK
fs="|" + different number of fields in different records (i.e., data  
file format bad) = OK
fs=,   + different number of fields in different records (i.e., data  
file format bad) = OK

Windows may be a different story, however. I haven't had a chance to  
check that.
