i just came accross a problem where sift(string) with mode first would have been handy. ele made me a solution with a sift(value) workaround but

please add first and last to sift(string) if possible

beta>21 comes with a new node:

Find (String) Returns the number of occurences of a substring in a string and the 0-based position-index of the first character of the substring in the string. The comparison is case-sensitive.

it also lets you chose to find: First|Last|All occurences. would that be it?
