The following behaviour of Python strikes me as being a bit

but does not use "split" because the separator might become
more complicated so that a regular expression will be required
to find it.
OK, so if you want to use an RE for splitting, can you not use
re.split() ? It basically works like the built-in splitting in AWK
>>> s='alphaAbetaBgamma'
>>> import re
>>> re.split(r'A|B|C', s)
['alpha', 'beta', 'gamma']
