Description

Split text by spacing, or by a Lua pattern.
This is useful to split the command arguments string in the function parameter for callbacks bound with addCommandHandler.

Code

Lua:

function split(inputstr, sep)
	if sep == nil then
		sep = "%s"
	end
	local t={} ; i=1
	for str in string.gmatch(inputstr, "([^"..sep.."]+)") do
		t[i] = str
		i = i + 1
	end
	return t
end
