Subject: Re: Rationale for split-string?
Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2003 09:35:44 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E196sVM-0004qj-00@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87n0io2fe5.fsf@tleepslib.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp> (stephen@xemacs.org)

    (defun split-string-sanely-too (string &optional separators)
      (let ((result (xemacs-split-string string separators)))
	(cond ((stringp separators)        result)
	      ((eq separators 'omit-nulls) (delete "" result))
	      (t (error 'invalid-argument
			"SEPARATORS must be a string or 'omit-nulls"
			separators)))))

This seems like a good approach, but I would rather use t instead
of `omit-nulls'.
