-.SH NAME
-split \- Split a string into a proper Tcl list
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-\fBsplit \fIstring \fR?\fIsplitChars\fR?
-.BE
-
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.PP
-Returns a list created by splitting \fIstring\fR at each character
-that is in the \fIsplitChars\fR argument.
-Each element of the result list will consist of the
-characters from \fIstring\fR that lie between instances of the
-characters in \fIsplitChars\fR.
-Empty list elements will be generated if \fIstring\fR contains
-adjacent characters in \fIsplitChars\fR, or if the first or last
-character of \fIstring\fR is in \fIsplitChars\fR.
-If \fIsplitChars\fR is an empty string then each character of
-\fIstring\fR becomes a separate element of the result list.
-\fISplitChars\fR defaults to the standard white-space characters.
-For example,
-.CS
-\fBsplit "comp.unix.misc" .\fR
-.CE
-returns \fB"comp unix misc"\fR and
-.CS
-\fBsplit "Hello world" {}\fR
-.CE
-returns \fB"H e l l o { } w o r l d"\fR.
