> With StrTokenizer at present you cannot extract the separators between the tokens, a feature which is possible with StringTokenizer.
> Thus tokenizing "a.b@c.d" using ".@" would return a,b,c,d but you wouldn't know where the @ was.
> This could probably best be part of the API as a lastSeparator() method that can only be called after next(), returning the separator(s) between that token and the previous token.
