SYNOPSISsplit string ?splitChars?
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
Returns a list created by splitting string at each character that is in
the splitChars argument. Each element of the result list will consist
of the characters from string that lie between instances of the characā
ters in splitChars. Empty list elements will be generated if string
contains adjacent characters in splitChars, or if the first or last
character of string is in splitChars. If splitChars is an empty string
then each character of string becomes a separate element of the result
list. SplitChars defaults to the standard white-space characters. For
example,
split "comp.unix.misc" .
returns "comp unix misc" and
split "Hello world" {}
returns "H e l l o { } w o r l d".
