"\t"

I'm sorry to say that this option is not available, neither in Perl components, neither in Java components.

You'd better open a new topic for your requirement, which provide other community user with a chance to give a response.
For you scenario, here is related forum https://community.talend.com/t5/Design-and-Development/customize-the-tFileOutputDelimited-filename/t..., hope it will be useful for your case.
