Subject: Split on unquoted space
To: Zsh Users <zsh-users@zsh.org>

This might well be a case of me not understanding my problem, but is there
a way to use parameter expansion to split only on unquoted spaces?

If I have myvar="my\ string", ${=myvar}  results in "my\" and "var", i.e.
zsh doesn't care about the fact that the space is quoted.

On the other hand, myvar="my\ var", ${(z)myvar} does respect the quoted
space and makes no split, but then myvar="my|var", ${(z)myvar} results in
"my" "|" "var", which is not what I want in this case.

So in short, is there a way to only split on space, but not split on a
quoted space?
