string split

[lily]

Hello,

             I had a question with split function in strings:

My string is:

Requirement: O111
|


where I would like to split the string into a list of two tokens: 'Requirement: O111' and '|'

Hence my code is as follows:

name = string.split(nametrace,'\n')

But I get an exception saying 

'TypeError: list objects are unhashable'

What is my mistake in the above code?

Thank you.
