 From some docs:
"
ignore( int nCount, delimiter );

Where nCount is the amount of characters to be ignored and delimiter is 
what its name says. It can be EOF if you want to stop at the end of the 
file. This way, this function is the same as seekg(). But it can also be 
'\n' for example, which will stop on the first new line.
"

So it will ignore the next nCount characters and stop if the read 
character is delimiter.
