Split string into substrings delimited by any of the characters given in the delimiter string. If no delimiters are specified, a string comprising the tab, newline and space characters is assumed. If the parameter KEEPEMPTY is given and not #f, then empty substrings are retained:

(string-split "one  two  three") ==> ("one" "two" "three")
(string-split "foo:bar::baz:" ":" #t) ==> ("foo" "bar" "" "baz" "")
(string-split "foo:bar:baz,quux,zot" ":," ) ==> ("foo" "bar" "baz" "quux" "zot")
