If all you're after is some RPG code to split strings into words I've got
some code in my utilities to do it. There's a word wrap routine in there
as well - pass n lines of x long and get back the lines reformatted to y
long. Would they be of any use?

Admittedly Python looks a *lot* better, but I've not yet got beyond
'Hello world' with it yet ;-)
