well at this point I could say, therefore I am, but, not being anywhere 
neeeeear the intelligence level of pascale, or was it De Cart, whom I can't 
spell, I can't recall now! anywayz, I think, to help people with lame minds 
like my own, UNDERSTAND/remember  THAT second parameter of StringSegment, 
treats each separate character, as another individual delimiter, that they 
ought to have made it so that vertical bars, separated each one of those.  Just 
to  remind people, and make it clearer, that it's not the whole actual string 
within quotation marks, made up potentially of multiple characters, that can be 
used as one entire delimiter.

Anywayz, no point in whining about that I guess it's never gunna happen now, as 
it would mess up miles of backwards incompatible code. <grin.>
But, this is correct isn't it? you can't have stringSegment have a second 
parameter of multiple character delimiter?
 such that, say, you could use, "\nf" 
to mean, I want my delimiter to be treated as such, only if newLine character 
followed by an f, occurs in the string?

and, if I'm correct about this, can anyone remind us, what the workaround 
method for this sich would be? when one may want an actual string of more than 
one character, to be treated as one's preferred delimiter?
for StringSegment related functions?

thanks.
