Undocumented functions in IDL [message #83357]

I have a question for the IDL developers about an undocumented functions in IDL. While I'm fairly new to IDL I'm maintaining IDL code that was written before I even knew the language existed. Up until now I had assumed the function was implemented in our code somewhere (due to the IDE not highlighting it) until I went searching for it today.

I find it strange enough that IDL even has hidden functions considering it only has a single namespace.
Anyway I my question is about the strtok() function. Do you guys have any plain to document this feature? As far as I can tell it has existed in IDL versions for at least 13 years that seems like more than enough time to make sure its stable and after a quick google search it seems like its hardly unknown.

Or should I be using STRSPLIT? What is the difference between the two?

Thanks,
Tim
