<para>
Start position in default grapheme units.
If $start is non-negative, the returned string will start at the
$start'th position in $string, counting from zero. If $start is negative,
the returned string will start at the $start'th grapheme unit from the
end of string.

<listitem>
<para>
Length in grapheme units.
If $length is given and is positive, the string returned will contain
at most $length grapheme units beginning from $start (depending on the
length of string). If $string is less than or equal to $start grapheme
units long, FALSE will be returned. If $length is given and is negative, then
that many grapheme units will be omitted from the end of string (after the
start position has been calculated when a start is negative). If $start
denotes a position beyond this truncation, an empty string will be returned.
