/*
    Differences with matlab built-in findstr:
        - allows to search only the n first occurences of a pattern
        - allows to search only in a substring (given an index of the beginning)
   
    Matlab hack:
        - doesn't use mxGetString to prevent a copy of the string.
        - assumes Matlab stores strings as unsigned short (Unicode 16 bits)
          matrix.h: typedef uint16_T mxChar;
          (that's the case for Matlab 5.* and 6.* but Matlab 4.* stores strings
           as double)
