| S: string | The string to split into elements. |
| Sep: string | The string that separates the individual elements. |

Description
StrToStrings converts the supplied string, which supposedly is a list of strings packed into a single string variable, to a TStrings. The function uses the supplied separator string to separate the string into its individual elements.
For example, if you call the function like this: StrToStrings('Project JEDI Rules', ' ', List) then on return list will contain three items, namely 'Project', 'JEDI', and 'Rules'. As this example shows, the last string doesn't have to be terminated by the separator string although it is allowed.
