There's a vertical split in the top of the nail on my pointing finger.

Have a read of this:

It contains hints and tips for dealing with split fingernails.

I had a look; maybe the problem is because back in February I was doing
a lot of cleaning of things with white spirit, and wasn't being
extremely careful (e.g. wearing gloves). So I'll look more into oily
things, e.g. lanolin.

Unfortunately there are worrying errors there though...

"My favorite remedy is good old fashioned Bag Balm which is made with
wool alcohol (a.k.a. lanolin)."

That's completely wrong. Lanolin is oily stuff that comes from sheep
fleeces, "wood alcohol" is methanol.
