Re: Two string instruction questions

Very late to the game, but could you use one of the new vector string instructions? Possibly a combination of VECTOR FIND ELEMENT EQUAL and VECTOR STRING RANGE COMPARE. I've done nothing with this (yet), so I can't provide any answers or advice. You would have to be z13 or better to open. On
