--- Comment #6 from Wolfgang Jäger <jag at psilosoph.de> ---
Starting with version 5.2.0 (2016-06-23) we have a TEXTJOIN() function, and
since 5.4 it is well debugged.  
3 and a half years later it is still crying for its counterpat function
TEXTSPLIT(). 

I would suggest to not only port the Basic function Split to Calc, but to do
something like (for simplicity in Basic-like notation):

Function TEXTSPLIT(pDelimiter, pMode, pList)
REM pMode should -at least- work like the second parameter of TEXTJOIN() does.
In Addition it may offer to suppress repetitions (pMode<0 e.g.)

A premium implementation would also accept array evaulation for ONEdimensional
(1 row / 1 column= pList arrays, probably corresponding with 1D pDelimiter
array with output to a 2Drange readable as a 1D array of columns or a 1D array
of Rows respectively. (I did it in Basic.)
