How to make string operations on texts in Construct?

I home this para-code explains what I mean:
```
first("exampletext",5) returns "examp"
last("exampletext",3) returns "ext"
substring ("exampletext",2,4) returns "ampl"[/code:12wam0yw]
```

The wiki will answer this: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/c ... xpressions

(scroll down to the category "Text" and look for left, right and mid)

The wiki is always a good starting point. Many of the various ACE are explained there
