 the pattern \var{pat}, and return a list containing the fields.  Only
 non-empty matches for the pattern are considered, so e.g.
 \code{split('a:b', ':*')} returns \code{['a', 'b']} and

+Split the string \var{str} in fields separated by delimiters matching

+\begin{funcdesc}{capwords}{s\optional{\, pat}}
+Capitalize words separated by optional pattern \var{pat}.  The default
+pattern uses any characters except letters, digits and underscores as
+word delimiters.  Capitalization is done by changing the first
+character of each word to upper case.
