 JUSTRIGHT()
 Moves characters from the end of a string to the beginning
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Syntax

     JUSTRIGHT(<cString>,[<cCharacter|nCharacter>])
        --> cString

 Arguments

     <cString>  [@] Designates the string that is processed.

     <cCharacter|nCharacter>  Designates the character that is moved from
     the end of the <cString> to the beginning.  The default value is a
     space, CHR(32).

 Returns

     The processed <cString> is returned.

 Description

     JUSTRIGHT() moves the characters specified in <cCharacter| nCharacter>
     from the end of a character string to the beginning.  Then the remaining
     text in the character string is right justified, without affecting the
     length.

 Notes

     .  If the <cCharacter|nCharacter> parameter is not specified,
        spaces are automatically moved.

     .  The return value for this function can be suppressed by
        implementing CSETREF() to save room in working memory.

 Examples

     .  Move the blanks:

        ? JUSTRIGHT("123   ")           // "   123"

     .  Move the "." character:

        ? JUSTRIGHT("123..", ".")       // "..123 "
