NAME
split - Split a string into a proper Tcl list
SYNOPSIS
split string ?splitChars?
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Returns a list created by splitting string at each charac
ter 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 characters 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 charac
ters. 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".
