All that is given to describe the parameters is the vague statement that
"Each substring is represented as three arguments: BUFFER, START and
END." Represented how? It should say that each substring is the text
in BUFFERN from STARTN to ENDN, for N=1,2.

I just changed it to
The first substring is in BUFFER1 from START1 to END1 and the second
is in BUFFER2 from START2 to END2.
No math necessary. :-)

The text had remained unchanged from 1993. Sacrilege!
