 The following functions should have a `vector` as yield value rather than
 a set/table:
 {{{
 split.*(...)
 find_all(...)
 }}}

 Moreover, `split` & friends have the yield value `table[count] of string`
 which starts at index 1. This is counterintuitive, as regular vectors
 start with a index at 0. I suggest replacing the yield value with `vector
 of string`.
