# $str.split Splits a string to an array
Usage
    $str.split(<separator>,<data>[,<flags>[,<maxfields>]])
Description
Splits the <data> string by <separator> and returns an array of substrings. <flags> may be a combination of the characters 's', 'w', 'r' and 'n'. If s is specified, <separator> matching is case sensitive, otherwise it is case insensitive. If w is specified, <separator> is treated as a wildcard-type regular expression (with * and ? wildcards). If r is specified, <separator> is treated as a extended-type regular expression (with character classes, special escapes etc..). If both w and r are specified, w takes precedence. If neither w and r are specified <separator> is treated as a simple string to be matched. If 'n' is specified then any resulting empty fields are discarded. If <maxfield> is specified, then at most <maxfields> items are returned in the array (i.e. the last item may be not completely split).
Syntax Specification
    <array> $str.split(<separator:string>,<data:string>[,<flags:string>[,<maxfields:integer>]])
Examples
        # Split the fields
        %test[] = $str.split(!,"Field0!Field1!Field2!Field3!!Field5")
        echo %test[]
        %i = 0
        while(%i < %test[]#)
        {
            echo "Field %i: %test[%i]"
            %i++;
        }
Regexp splitting:
        %Test[] = $str.split("[ ]*[0-9][0-9]*-","AllOfThem: 1-Balboy 2-Pragma 3-Iakkolo 4-Crocodile",r)
        echo %Test[]
        %Test[] = $str.split("Y*H","hihiYeaHhohohoyeahYepYEAHhi",sw)
        echo %Test[]
If used outside of an array context, a comma-separated list of substrings is returned:
        echo $str.split("[ ]*","Condense spaces and change     all       it in commas",r)
