Thanks for your quick response, Pavol, this did the trick and cleared up my
misunderstanding.  Might I suggest an overloaded version of split that takes
a string/character string as a delimiter.  Althought the implementation
details are different, I still think it fits well into the intent of the
split algorithm and may clear up issue for others have the same problem as I
did.

Thanks again for your help!
