You cannot bend the split package to your needs? http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/split/0.2.1.2/doc/html/Data-List...

Some combination of splitWhen and a pcre-based predicate?

This won't work; splitWhen operates only on single list elements, not on substrings. -Brent

I could not find the perl-equivalents of these functions on Hackage, so I quickly wrote mine. Code is there:

https://github.com/bartavelle/pcre-utils

It should behave like perl (not really tested actually), and do strange things like :

...

splitCompile "a" "aaaab" Right ["","","","","b"] splitCompile "a" "aaaabaaa" Right ["","","","","b"]

This will go on Hackage as I need it for the language-puppet package, but I am interested in comments, especially concerning the namespaces: * is the name of this package OK ? * is the name of the package OK ? * should I work with the regex-pcre maintainer to try to merge it ?
