import { strict as assert } from "assert";
import { expander } from "string-range-expander";
// let's say we have picked the "zzzz" index range - [16, 20]
// "something>\n\t zzzz <here"
// | |
// from to
//
// PS. "\n" and "\t" take up a single character's length
assert.deepEqual(
expander({
str: "something>\n\t zzzz <here",

ifRightSideIncludesThisThenCropTightly: "<",
