# If you need to split string into list using some more complicated rule
# than builtin split command allows, use following function. It mimics
# Perl split operator which allows regexp as element separator, but,
# like builtin split, it expects string to split as first arg and regexp
# as second (optional) By default, it splits by any amount of whitespace. 
# Note that if you add parenthesis into regexp, parenthesed part of separator
# would be added into list as additional element. Just like in Perl. -- cary

# Speed improvement by Reinhard Max:
# Instead of repeatedly copying around the not yet matched part of the
# string, I use [regexp]'s -start option to restrict the match to that
# part. This reduces the complexity from something like O(n^1.5) to
# O(n). My test case for that was:
# 
# foreach i {1 10 100 1000 10000} {
#     set s [string repeat x $i]
#     puts [time {splitx $s .}]

#
# splitn --
#
# splitn splits the string $str into chunks of length $len.  These
# chunks are returned as a list.
#
# If $str really contains a ByteArray object (as retrieved from binary
# encoded channels) splitn must honor this by splitting the string
# into chunks of $len bytes.
#
# It is an error to call splitn with a nonpositive $len.
#
# If splitn is called with an empty string, it returns the empty list.
#
# If the length of $str is not an entire multiple of the chunk length,
# the last chunk in the generated list will be shorter than $len.
#
# The implementation presented here was given by Bryan Oakley, as
# part of a ``contest'' I staged on c.l.t in July 2004.  I selected
# this version, as it does not rely on runtime generated code, is
# very fast for chunk size one, not too bad in all the other cases,
# and uses [split] or [string range] which have been around for quite
# some time.
