Sorry to answer my own question. BUT, after posting I searched the
str_sep routine and think I located the bug. It's at line 122 of
str_sep.pro. The line reads:
else arr(i) = strmid(s, spos < strlen(spos) - 1, strlen(s))
but should read:
else arr(i) = strmid(s, spos-strlen(sep), strlen(s))
I still think that there is a "bug." Although some would call it a
feature? It's that the last element in the seperated list still has the
seperator attached.
Hope this helps,
Phil
