;;;
;;; Various string funcitons, particularly those that take
;;; advantage of the "shared substring" capability.
;;;

;;; {String Fun: Dividing Strings Into Fields}
;;; 
;;; The names of these functions are very regular.
;;; Here is a grammar of a call to one of these:
;;;
;;;   <string-function-invocation>
;;;   := (<action>-<seperator-disposition>-<seperator-determination> <seperator-param> <str> <ret>)
;;;
;;; <str>    = the string
;;;
;;; <ret>    = The continuation.  String functions generally return
;;;	       multiple values by passing them to this procedure.
;;;
;;; <action> =    split
;;;		| separate-fields
;;;
;;;		"split" means to divide a string into two parts.
;;;			<ret> will be called with two arguments.
;;;
;;;		"separate-fields" means to divide a string into as many
;;;			parts as possible.  <ret> will be called with
;;;			however many fields are found.
;;;
;;; <seperator-disposition> = 	  before
;;;				| after
;;;				| discarding
;;;
;;;		"before" means to leave the seperator attached to
;;;			the beginning of the field to its right.
;;;		"after" means to leave the seperator attached to
;;;			the end of the field to its left.
;;;		"discarding" means to discard seperators.
;;;
;;;		Other dispositions might be handy.  For example, "isolate"
;;;		could mean to treat the separator as a field unto itself.
;;;
;;; <seperator-determination> =	  char
;;;				| predicate
;;;
;;;		"char" means to use a particular character as field seperator.
;;;		"predicate" means to check each character using a particular predicate.
;;;		
;;;		Other determinations might be handy.  For example, "character-set-member".
;;;
;;; <seperator-param> = A parameter that completes the meaning of the determinations.
;;;			For example, if the determination is "char", then this parameter
;;;			says which character.  If it is "predicate", the parameter is the
;;;			predicate.
;;;
;;;
;;; For example:
;;;
;;;		(separate-fields-discarding-char #\, "foo, bar, baz, , bat" list)
;;;		=> ("foo" " bar" " baz" " " " bat")
;;;
;;;		(split-after-char #\- 'an-example-of-split list)
;;;		=> ("an-" "example-of-split")
;;;
;;; As an alternative to using a determination "predicate", or to trying to do anything
;;; complicated with these functions, consider using regular expressions.
