Constants:List from text

This command breaks a string of text into a list by delimiting the values based on a delimiter of your choosing. Where $list from file creates a list that mimics the text file that you load, paragraph/line breaks and all, $list from text allows you to work directly with CSV and other delimited files.

In the below script example, the CSV file is loaded and the individual values between commas are transferred into a list with each value on a separate line.

this is a CSV file
