Index()
INDEX()
FUNCTION: index(<list>,<character>,<first>,<length>)
This function is similar to EXTRACT(), except that an item in the list may be more than one word; instead of a space being used to separate items in the list, <character> is used. The function returns <length> items starting from that in the <first> position. Trailing spaces are trimmed. The comma cannot be used as the <character> separator.
Example: > say [index(Cup of Tea | Mug of Beer | Glass of Wine, |, 2, 1)] You say, "Mug of Beer"
