$remove(string,substring,substringN)
$removecs(string,substring,substringN)

• string - the original string you want to remove from
• substring - the substring you want to remove from the original string, you can

Remove the channel from a message

//echo -a $remove($active,$chan)

Show the download folder as a relative location only if it's a subfolder of $mircdir

//echo -a $remove($getdir,$mircdir)

Case-insensitive remove all 'a' from 'aAabcdaaA'
//echo -a $remove(aAabcdaaA,a)
returns: bcd
Case-insensitive remove string 'ac' from 'AaCcX'
//echo -a $remove(AaCcX,ac)
returns: AcX
The first match was at positions 2-3, and no matches were beyond.
//echo -a $remove(AaCcX,ac,ac)

//echo -a $remove( $remove(AaCcX,ac) , ac)
