This does! When looking at the docs I guess this made me think "split" and such were tied specifically to tables. But now I'm starting to wrap my head around this.
In general, for string manipulation the main tools Lil provides are:
- drop, take, split, and parse for cutting strings apart into smaller pieces
- fuse and format for gluing pieces together to make strings
- like, in, <, >, and = for comparing and searching strings
...and a few of the more complicated utility functions functions in rtext do also apply to plain strings.
