I want to split it into a List<List<T>>, broken at the markers. e.g. given an input of {a, b, M, c, d, e, f, M, g}, where 'M' is a marker element, I want to get {{a, b},{c, d, e, f}, {g}} It is easy to do the job with a loop, but it seems like it should be ...

The following code was part of an answer I have received to solve a probem I have posted in SO. It works fine, however I'm curious if its allowed to manually invoke another event from within an invocation-method with the EventArgs of the original event: protected override void OnMouseLeftButtonUp( MouseButtonEventArgs e ) { ba...
