items of "example" -- {"e", "x", "a", "m", "p", "l", "e"}
characters of "example" -- {"e", "x", "a", "m", "p", "l", "e"}

text 4 thru -1 of "example" -- "mple"

reverse of items of "example" as text -- "elpmaxe"

set text item delimiters to "e"
set ti to text items of "example" -- {"", "xampl", ""}
set text item delimiters to "f"
ti as text -- "fxamplf"
