ahh - I think I see - you actually want unique parameters but you want to
avoid using an array to build the input argument. Yes, I see now this is
what you meant.
I have absolutely no idea how to achieve that
In order for $i to
separate the parameters it must (AFAIK) be an array OR you must convert $i
into an array when you pass it through. Using a Split() wouldn't work for
the example you've given but some regular expression jiggerypokery might do
it. Sadly my regex skilz are not that great.
