Hi,
I find this behavior unexpected:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
> strsplit(c("a,b;c","d;e,f"),c(",",";"))
[[1]]
[1] "a"   "b;c"

[[2]]
[1] "d"   "e,f"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I thought that it should be identical to this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
> strsplit(c("a,b;c","d;e,f"),"[,;]")
[[1]]
[1] "a" "b" "c"

[[2]]
[1] "d" "e" "f"
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Is this a bug or did I misunderstand the docs?
Thanks!
