§ 4.101 - [split] Built-InMnemonic aid: split See also: [split] ) This built-in takes content and splits it for retrieval using the [parm] ) built-in. The idea is that for some styles, you will want to pass more than one parameter. [split] ) takes a separator parameter X, and then the content to be split. You can specify anything you like as the separator, although to use a comma, you must use the comma escape, [co] ) Tip:
After the [split] ) operation has run, you can retrieve the number of parameters that were created as current [parm] ) values from the local variable loc_splitcount. Be aware that there may be content in [parm] ) s that are outside of the set that were retrieved in the current operation. For instance, if loc_splitcount is 3, then the [parm] ) s that will be set by the most recent [split] ) are 0, 1 and 2 — but there may be older content in 3 and 4 and so on. Tip:
See also the [splash] ) built-in. It may do what you want with fewer operations. Other built-ins used here: [splash] )
