change default comment in nerd commenter

Question

In nerdcommenter, the default comment is /* */.

I tried to change it to # for plain text as:

"NerdCommenter {{{
" Add spaces after comment delimiters by default
let g:NERDSpaceDelims = 1
" Use compact syntax for prettified multi-line comments
let g:NERDCompactSexyComs = 1
let g:NERDCustomDelimiters = { 'text': { 'left': '#','right': '' } }
"}}}

But this is still using default /* */ style.

In linux, the file output is:

 file POSCAR
POSCAR: ASCII text

So, how I can change comment for such text file to #?

Had the same issue. Was incorrectly putting the custom delimiter option in my ~/.gvimrc. Worked when I put the custom delimiter setting in ~/.vimrc instead.
