I think that treating an explicitly-passed-in ' ' delimiter as identical to 'no delimiter' is a bad idea. If I say that ' ' is the delimiter, or '\t' is the delimiter, this should be treated *just* like ',' being the delimiter, where the expected output is: ['1', '2', '3', '4', '', '5']
Valid point. Well, all, stay tuned for yet another "yet another implementation..."
While we're at it, it might be nice to be able to pass in more than one delimiter: ('\t',' '). though maybe that only combination that I'd really want would be something and '\n', which I think is being treated specially already. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker@noaa.gov
