//echo -a $pos(DEADBEEF,E) returns: 2 (search is case-insensitive) (Default N=1 when 3rd parameter isn't used) //echo -a $pos(DEADBEEF,e,2) returns: 6 //echo -a $pos(DEADBEEF,e,0) returns: 3 (count of letter 'e') //echo -a $pos(deadbeef,db,1) returns: 4 //echo -a $pos(DEADBEEF,x,0) returns: $null (not found) //var %a a $chr(32) b | echo -a The string has length $len(%a) and contains $pos(%a,$chr(32),0) spaces //echo -a The path-less filename is $mid($mircexe, $calc(1+$pos($mircexe,\, $count($mircexe,\) ) ) )
