it depends of the thing you want to do. please, describe your task, as 
the solutions can differ depending of your needs. if you needs only 
values and don't care about everything other, this can help:

  import std.regex;
  import std.stdio;

  void main () {
    string text = "some,very=long,text*another=shit";
    foreach (immutable v; text.splitter(regex("[,=*\n\r]"))) {
      writeln(v);
    }
  }
