Oups, i sent my answer to squeak-dev... forward to beginners I see at least two alternatives: - Stream - VBRegex
If you have a single separator string, then Stream already has the upToAll: method (leave stream positioned before occurence...) | testString sep subStrings inputStream | testString := 'split that string in this language'. sep := 'th'. subStrings := Array new writeStream. inputStream := testString readStream. [inputStream atEnd] whileFalse: [ subStrings nextPut: (inputStream upToAll: sep). inputStream throughAll: sep]. ^subStrings contents VBRegex is more powerfull of course (it can match several different separators at once). I let you inquire about it. Nicolas Damien Pollet: > Hi, > > is there anything like ruby's String#split in Smalltalk?
