This seems like a simple thing to implement. I'm not sure whether to split the algorithm selection into another option or to have the prefix like you've specified here or not though.

The Posix actions seem to use prefixes but Windows-specific actions seem to prefer split. I certainly prefer the former as it is one less variable to juggle, but consistency might be more valuable…
