I am pleased to announce the release of Data.List.Split, which provides a wide range of strategies and a unified combinator framework for splitting lists with respect to some sort of delimiter. It strives to be flexible yet simple. If you've ever wished there was a simple 'split' function you could grab from Data.List, this is the package for you---no matter which of the seventeen* slightly different ways to split a list you actually need! Just use one of the prepackaged splitting strategies, or build your own with the combinator library. Get it from Hackage: cabal install split http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/split Get the source: darcs get http://code.haskell.org/~byorgey/code/split Get excited: http://byorgey.wordpress.com/2008/12/21/datalistsplit/ -Brent * Actual number may vary.
