                       CharsNotIn

Token for matching words composed of characters not in a given set (will include whitespace in matched characters if not listed in the provided exclusion set - see example). Defined with string containing all disallowed characters, and an optional minimum, maximum, and/or exact length. The default value for `min` is 1 (a minimum value < 1 is not valid); the default values for `max` and `exact` are 0, meaning no maximum or exact length restriction.

Example:

       # define a comma-separated-value as anything that is not a ','
       csv_value = CharsNotIn(',')
       print(delimitedList(csv_value).parseString("dkls,lsdkjf,s12 34,@!#,213"))

prints:

       ['dkls', 'lsdkjf', 's12 34', '@!#', '213']
