delWord

>>-delWord(n--+---------+--)-----------------------------------><
              +-,length-+

Returns a copy of the receiving string after deleting the substring that starts at the [n] th word and is of [length] blank-delimited words. If you omit [length] , or if [length] is greater than the number of words from [n] to the end of the receiving string, the method deletes the remaining words in the receiving string (including the [n] th word). The [length] must be a positive whole number or zero. The [n] must be a positive whole number. If [n] is greater than the number of words in the receiving string, the method returns the receiving string unchanged. The string deleted includes any whitespace characters following the final word involved but none of the whitespace characters preceding the first word involved.
