CSET$ function

Purpose | Return a string containing a centered (padded) string.
Syntax | result_var = CSET$(string_expression, strlen& [USING ustring_expression])
Remarks | CSET$ centers the string string_expression into a string of strlen& characters.
USING | If ustring_expression is null (empty) or is not specified, CSET$ pads string_expression with space characters. Otherwise, CSET$ pads the string with the first character of ustring_expression. If string_expression is shorter then strlen&, CSET$ centers string_expression within result_var, padding both sides as described above; otherwise, CSET$ returns the left-most strlen& bytes of string_expression.
