[Haskell-cafe] Separate a string into a list of strings

[Neil Mitchell]

Hi,

I tend to use the module TextUtil (or Util.Text) from Yhc for these
kind of string manipulations:

http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~malcolm/cgi-bin/darcsweb.cgi?r=yhc;a=headblob;f=/src/compiler98/Util/Text.hs

separate = splitList ","

I am currently thinking about making this module into a standalone
library with some other useful functions, if people have any opinions
on this then please let me know.

Thanks

Neil
