Re:

This question isn't very i specific, but it does have to do with an i project I'm working on.

I need to split a string (in Java) into individual words ... but I need to preserve spaces.

An example of the text I need to split is something like this:
ABC . . . . DEF . . . . GHI

I need to see "ABC", " . . . .", "DEF", ". . . .", and "GHI".

Obviously splitting on the space character `\s` isn't going to work, as all the spaces get swallowed up as one space.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
