======Synopsis:======
$__fromw__(<word> <word list>)

======Technical:======
   * If the <word> argument is omitted this function returns the empty string.
   * The <word list> is literal strings.  Before EPIC4-1.1.10, the <word list> was a list of wildcard patterns.
   * If <word> is not found in <word list>, this function returns the empty string.
   * Otherwise, the function behaves "as if" the following had been performed: \\ <val> = findw(<word> <word list>) \\ <function_return> = restw(<val> <word list>)
   * Remember that <wordlist> is a list of [[what is a word|words]].

======Practical:======
This function lets you get the part of <word list> that occurs AFTER
AND INCLUDING the <word>.

======Returns:======
The portion of <word list> after and including the <word>.

======Examples:======
<file>
$fromw(foobar one two foobar my shoe)    returns "foobar my shoe"
$fromw(booya one two foobar my shoe)     returns ""  (empty string)
$fromw(foobar f* fo* foobar foo* foob*)  returns "foobar foo* foob*"
</file>

======History:======
This function first appeared in "+2" (post-ircII, pre-EPIC)
