scalar to list conversion
say I have a string scalar $s I would like to convert it @s in such a way that qw would do it... i.e. if $s = rabbit hole\t goes\tall the way\n then @s = (rabbit,hole,goes,all,the,way\n) notice that I preserved the \n at the end, but I would settle for a solution that doesn't preserve it...thanx __ Do you Yahoo!?
