IGNORE. I got stuck trying to do an assignment: "a[ : ] = xx". slicing
works great.

I've done little vim9script programing (and no vimscript).
I want to replace a part of a buffer line. I thought to do
"getline()", slicing, "setline()", no joy; I couldn't see any way to
manipulate the string directly.Anything better I couldn't find? I'm
still getting used to the synthesis of vim9script and vim commands
In the following, F1() seems expensive, F2() feels uncomfortable (for
example 'x' command might go to the next line). For performance is
F2() better (assuming there's some checking).
Any comments/suggestions appreciated

cursor(lino, pos1 + 1)
execute 'normal ' .. (pos2 - pos1 + 1) .. 'x'

F1(2, 12, 15, 'BOO')
F2(3, 12, 15, 'FOO')
