Text

Creates and manipulates text. Positions count from 1, and 0 is returned when nothing is found. The length of a text is a character count, not a byte count, so a Korean syllable also counts as one character. Blocks that take a position let you count from the start or from the end. Change Case and Check Case apply to letters of the English alphabet only.
