Pythonesque string splitting for C++

This library aims to provide C++ functions to split strings in roughly the same way as Python's string splitting works.

For documentation read the quick quide.

Features

• splits by character

• split by group of chars (e.g. whitespace)

• smart line splitting

• whitespace splitter helper function

• helper code to process files that uses mmap transparently

• Split by substring

• the API takes only std::string_views so easily works with pretty much any data store without the need to copy data or write converters

• return types are either std::string_views for performance or std::strings if a copy of the input data is needed

Missing features

• This should really be implemented via coroutines

• Not hardened against file system shenanigans

• API is neither complete nor stable, do not depend on it being stable
