#' Wrapper for colSplit that Returns Dataframe(s)
#' 
#' \code{colsplit2df} - Wrapper for \code{\link[qdap]{colSplit}} that returns a 
#' dataframe.
#' 
#' @param dataframe A dataframe with a column that has been pasted together.
#' @param splitcols The name/index of the column(s) that has been pasted together.
#' @param new.names A character vector of new names to assign to the columns (or
#' list of names if multiple columns are being split).  
#' Default attempts to extract the original names before the paste.
#' @param sep The character(s) that was used in \code{paste2} to paste the 
#' columns.
#' @param keep.orig logical.  If \code{TRUE} the original pasted column will be 
#' retained as well.
#' @param name.sep The character(s) that was used to paste the column names.
#' @param index.names logical.  If \code{TRUE} names of columns that are duplicated
#' are indexed with c("name.1", "name.2", ... "name.n").  
#' @return \code{colsplit2df} - returns a dataframe with the \code{paste2} 
#' column split into new columns.
