However, the solution is very simple:
repeat for each line tLine in tList
put tLine into tempLine
<doSomething to tempLine>
end repeat
Excellent! I knew it was something simple... split is too important to
be broken. And I can understand the contraints (if you think of it from
a binary point of view.. pointers and all...)
Thanks Mark...

Yes this is completely counter intuitive, and completely stupidly

from the docs on repeat foreach:
Important! You cannot change the labelVariable in a statement
inside the
loop. Doing so will cause a script error. You can change the content
of the
container, but doing so will probably produce unexpected results.
This is such a common gotcha: on a quick review, I found #248, #1026, #3139,
#5157, #5605 in addition to the report Björnke cited.
Once upon a time, the compiler caught at least some of these instances, so you
at least got an immediate error that modifying the loop variable inside the
loop wasn't supported; however at some point post 2.0 (?) that was lost.
To my mind, this is the kind of efficiency hack/potential cause of confusion
that Rev should sacrifice in favour of avoiding confusion. I'd love to see it
sorted once and for all. Votes are currently all centered on #3036 - I'd urge
adding your votes there to help push this issue up RunRev's (post-2.9)
priority list.
