SUBSTRING() | astring=String [start=Integer] [length=Integer] | Select a string of a specified length from a given starting position. |
example:
# pick the user name from this string >> printn substring("Run: no, User: A Neutron", 16) A Neutron # Select just the initial >> printn substring("Run: no, User: A Neutron", 16, 1) A
Note: if the length value is null, the rest of the string is returned.
