--## FIXME: this file is here to avoid conflicts with new Octave versions. Matlab
--##        has recently added strplit function (used to exist in Octave only) but
--##        their syntax is not compatible with ours. Rather than timing the
--##        release of each octave forge package that used strsplit, a copy of the
--##        old version was placed as private. Once the new Octave version is
--##        released, this file can be removed, and the calls to strsplit fixed.

--## @deftypefn  {Function File} {[@var{cstr}] =} strsplit (@var{s}, @var{sep})
--## @deftypefnx {Function File} {[@var{cstr}] =} strsplit (@var{s}, @var{sep}, @var{strip_empty})
--## Split the string @var{s} using one or more separators @var{sep} and return
--## a cell array of strings.  Consecutive separators and separators at
--## boundaries result in empty strings, unless @var{strip_empty} is true.
--## The default value of @var{strip_empty} is false.
--##
--## 2-D character arrays are split at separators and at the original column
--## boundaries.
--##
--## Example:
--##
--## @example
--## @group
--## strsplit ("a,b,c", ",")
--##       @result{}
--##           @{
--##             [1,1] = a
--##             [1,2] = b
--##             [1,3] = c
--##           @}
--##
--## strsplit (["a,b" ; "cde"], ",")
--##       @result{}
--##           @{
