std.array the split function has a version where it takes a 
range as a separator, but it works differently than what I 
want. Say if I call it with " -> " it will search for the 
whole thing together. I want to pass split a list of 
separators say [":", ",", ";"] and if it finds any of those to 
split it.

Sorry if this questions is stupid but I cant find how to do it.


void main()
{

   import std.stdio: writeln;
   writeln("abc,def;ghi".splitter!(a => 
!":,;".find(a).empty).array);
}

The call to `array` is unnecessary in this example, and you can 
use the shorter `canFind`:

   writeln("abc,def;ghi".splitter!(a => ":,;".canFind(a)));
