For "a.b.c"splitter(x), Range r is a string, r.front is a

r.front is a char, then s must be a type that can be compared
with '=='. A string and char cannot be compared with '==',
which is why the a valid template instantiation could not be
found.
Would it be correct to just update the documentation to say
"Lazily splits a range using an char as a separator" ? what
is it; wchar and dchar too?
I notice the example that is there has ' ' as the element.
But this works:
writeln("a.b.c".splitter(".") );
Geez, my mistake. I'm sorry about that. It's dropback that's
failing, not splitter.
