/// Simple string tokenizer class.
/**
 * This class implements a string tokenizer. It splits a string
 * by a character to a number of elements (tokens) which are
 * provided sequentially.
 *
 * All operations are made on a copy of the original string
 * (which may be in fact a copy-on-write instance).
 *
 * The original string is left unchanged. All tokens are returned
 * as newly created strings.
 *
 * There is possibility to specify a prefix character which
 * causes the consecutive character is not considered as
 * a delimiter. If you don't specify this character (or specify
 * the NUL character, 0x00) this feature is disabled. The mostly
 * used prefix is a backslash ('\').
 *
 * This class is not thread-safe.
 *
 * Performance note: This class is currently not intended
 * to be very fast. Speed optimizations will be done later.
