Synopsis

.. BEGIN SYNOPSIS

|
|
string split [(-m | --max) MAX] [(-n | --no-empty)] [(-q | --quiet)] [(-r | --right)] SEP [STRING...]

string split0 [(-m | --max) MAX] [(-n | --no-empty)] [(-q | --quiet)] [(-r | --right)] [STRING...]

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
.. BEGIN DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
``string split`` splits each STRING on the separator SEP, which can be an empty string. If ``-m`` or ``--max`` is specified, at most MAX splits are done on each STRING. If ``-r`` or ``--right`` is given, splitting is performed right-to-left. This is useful in combination with ``-m`` or ``--max``. With ``-n`` or ``--no-empty``, empty results are excluded from consideration (e.g. ``hello\n\nworld`` would expand to two strings and not three). Exit status: 0 if at least one split was performed, or 1 otherwise.
|
|
|
|
See also the ``--delimiter`` option of the :ref:`read <cmd-read>` command.
|
|
|
|
``string split0`` splits each STRING on the zero byte (NUL). Options are the same as ``string split`` except that no separator is given.
|
|
|
|
``split0`` has the important property that its output is not further split when used in a command substitution, allowing for the command substitution to produce elements containing newlines. This is most useful when used with Unix tools that produce zero bytes, such as ``find -print0`` or ``sort -z``. See split0 examples below.
