## @deftypefn  {Function File} {[@var{cstr}] =} strsplit (@var{s})
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {[@var{cstr}] =} strsplit (@var{s}, @var{del})
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {[@var{cstr}] =} strsplit (@var{s}, @var{del}, @var{collapsedelimiters})
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {[@var{cstr}] =} strsplit (@dots{}, @var{name}, @var{value})
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {[@var{cstr}, @var{matches}] =} strsplit (@dots{})
## Split the string @var{s} using the delimiters specified by @var{del} and return
## a cell array of strings.  For a single delimiter, @var{del} may be a string,
## or a scalar cell-string.  For multible delimiters, @var{del} must be a cell-string
## array.  Unless @var{collapsedelimiters} is specified to be @var{false}, consecutive
## delimiters are collapsed into one.
##
## The second output, @var{matches}, returns the delmiters which were matched
## in the original string.  The matched delimiters are uneffected by the
## @var{collapsedelimiters}.
##
## Example:
##
## @example
## @group
## strsplit ("a b c")
##       @result{}
##           @{
##             [1,1] = a
