New primitives: * `sub' to subtract two numbers. * `stringLength' to get the length of a string. * `substring' to get a substring of a string. These should be enough to allow most string operations to be expressed. 2007-01-29 14:23:09 +00:00			`with builtins;`

* builtins.substring: if "start" is beyond the end of the string, return the empty string. 2011-01-14 12:47:10 +00:00			`+ "c"`
