!
This procedure splits the text T into parts as divided
by the text delimiter DEL and makes the elements of
TA[1:N] denote the different parts of T (without DEL).
The returned value SPLITA is the number of parts found.
However, if more than N parts are found, the value -1 is
returned.
is recommended. SPLITC is approx. twice as efficient as SPLITA.
