Hi all,

Is there a substring matching function (like "strstr" in libc) in the
standard OCaml library?  Of course there are many ways to implement it
(by writing it from scratch, using the Str library, interfacing
"strstr" in libc, etc.), but they are overkill for my purpose.  So I'm
wondering whether such a function already exists, but I couldn't find
it in the manual...
