Sorry, Paul - I suspect I had seen that before, but forgotten it.
It was a good idea back then, and still is :-)
Though, if we are going to add some form of "with colkeys", I believe
there should be a version which says that the first line of the input
contains the column keys; thus you could do
Split X indexed using cr and tab with colKeys tColumns and tColumns
contains the column keys
or simply
Split X indexed using cr and tab with colKeys and the first line of X
contains the column keys (and line 1 is omitted from the results)
If no-one tells me that's crazy (and why), I'll go add that to the
feature request.

command, so that it would parse by Primary and Secondary delimiters
into numerically indexed arrays ? (using a new optional keyword
