This one implements initial requirements from this wishlist thread
WishList::Find
Actually by calling it "handy" I lied.
It is "handy" *only* if you need it.
But my point is - this is BASIC language
It has pretty standard list of basic string functions
- and almost anything you need above that you can make from that within 5 minutes.
If you have a need.
Adding a function to the language to save 5 minute coding is really too much to ask.
The only thing I changed from original task is name. I don't see it being "find". I see it doing "filter". So -

a$="qwertyuiop"
b$="aeiou"
c$=filter$(a$,b$)
'c$ will hold "euio"
print c$
wait
function filter$(src$, accept$)
'pass only characters from accept$ string
filter$=""
for i = 1 to len(src$)
c$=mid$(src$,i,1)
if instr(accept$,c$) then filter$=filter$+c$
next
end function
