-arguments( arg_str )
+arguments( arg_str [, keepcase:=false] )
+Return type: array of string
+Splits arg_str into sub arguments and returns the arguments as a table. Optional 2nd argument is a boolean value specifying whether the case of arguments are preserved. The default is false, meaning all arguments will be converted to lowercase in the returned table.
+White space are considered argument boundaries except when single quotes are used. See example below.
 <code lua>
 local args=arguments("abc def 'ghi jkl' mno")
 tprint(args)
