- Synopsis:
- $midw(<offset> <count> <text>)
-
- Technical:
- This function returns the input text, starting at the given word offset,
- and not exceeding the total number of words specified. The offset is
- counted from 0 (zero).
-
- Practical:
- This function operates on words in the same manner that $mid() operates
- on characters, returning only a subset of the input word list. This is
- probably mostly useful in a script, perhaps to display the partial
- contents of a variable.
-
- Returns:
- word subset from input list, or nothing if error
-
- Examples:
- $midw(2 2 hello there how are you?) returns "how are"
- $midw(2 4 hello there how are you?) returns "how are you?"

- leftw(6); restw(6); rightw(6)
