this is very un-php like..
you can do the exact same thing with 

What is the matter with doing this...
> $string = "My String";
> 
> echo $string[5]; // returns "r"
echo substr($string, 5);

> echo $string[0,]; // returns "My String"
echo substr($string, 0);

> echo $string[3,5]; // returns "Str"
echo substr($string, 3, 5);

> echo $string[,3]; // returns "My S"
echo substr($string, 0, 3);

if you want to access a individual part of a string i think
it will be in zend2 with this syntax

$string "foo";
echo $string{2}; // will print 'o';

anyone correct me if im wrong
