[Gambas-user] Split doesn't work properly with non-ascii chars (bug?)

[Alberto Torres]

When I pass a non-ascii char to split() separator argument, it seems 
that it converts to utf-8 encoding, and split() then uses only the first 
byte:

result = Split("Hola¿hola¡hola", "¿")     ' I want result be "Hola" and 
"hola¡hola"

because utf "¿" is "¿" and utf "¡" is "¡", the result is the same as 
Split("Hola¿hola¡hola", "Â"):

Hola
¿hola
¡hola

Could split() use more than a byte so I could also do something like 
this? Split("One and two and three", " and ")
