The docs for getline() say that when it's called without an 'end', it
returns the text of the given line as a String (and that given an 'end', it
returns a List).

    This is text.
    This is also text.

    " Now, from the command line...
    :echo getline(1)
    This is text.
    " That should be a String. So...
    :echo getline(1).split(' ')
    E730: using List as a String
    E15: Invalid expression: getline(1).split(' ')
    " Huh. So even asked for just one line, it's returning a List?
    :echo join(getline(1))
    E714: List required
    0

Am I misunderstanding something?

Ben
