Brilliant! Thanks, David. I love this community. :)

I had tried split, but in haste, with no arguments. However, after 
reading the docs again I see no arguments equals a space.

Interesting how the documentation has a perfect example:

"hello".split(//) #=> ["h", "e", "l", "l", "o"]

When writing that extension I kept thinking, all I need is an array, how 
can I get one? Now I know!
