The presence of certain characters in the input may cause unexpected results, so tlx Str_sub/any should be used to handle any possible character. Otherwise, there can be problems with some special characters. For example, tlx Str sub long|abc%def|2|3 → Str sub long abc%def 2 3 works as desired, whereas if the output string contains any of <code>:;*#</code> the results are not as desired:<br /> | ||
