[Cuis-dev] Split string

[Hernan Wilkinson]

I have had the same problems when looking for this message and the problem
is I never remember its name! I know it exists but I do not remember its
name :-)
For some reason I look for split ...
Maybe we can add split to send findTokens: ? just to help finding it
because if it is happening to many of us it means something :-)

Cheers!
Hernan.
