With what you have shown us there is little hope of us being able to help you.
You seem to be saying that you want to extract 14 characters starting in position 53 from the 11 character string "./blablabla". We have no idea whether you are expecting other characters to come from subdirectory names, or if you have wildcard characters in "blablabla" that you aren't showing us, or something else.
If you tell us what operating system you're using, what shell you're using, show us some actual samples of the pathnames being produced by the command find . -name blablabla (in CODE tags), and show us exactly what ln commands you hope to produce from those pathnames (in CODE tags); we would have a much better chance of coming up with something that might accomplish what you're trying to do. Note that an ln -s command needs two operands; not just one (and your sample code seems to be trying to only produce one).
Please help us help you.

gappletviewer
GAPPLETVIEWER(1) GNU GAPPLETVIEWER(1)
NAME
gappletviewer - Load and runs an applet
SYNOPSIS
appletviewer [OPTION]... URL...
appletviewer [OPTION]... -code CODE
appletviewer [OPTION]... -plugin INPUT,OUTPUT
DESCRIPTION
The appletviewer tool loads and runs an applet.
Use the first form to test applets specified by tag. The URL should resolve to an HTML document from which the appletviewer will extract
applet tags. The APPLET, EMBED and OBJECT tags are supported. If a given document contains multiple applet tags, all the applets will be
loaded, with each applet appearing in its own window. Likewise, when multiple URLs are specified, each applet tag instance is given its
own window. If a given document contains no recognized tags the appletviewer does nothing.
appletviewer http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/
Use the second form to test an applet in development. This form allows applet tag attributes to be supplied on the command line. Only one
applet may be specified using the -code option. The -code option overrides the URL form -- any URLs specified will be ignored.
appletviewer -code Test.class -param datafile,data.txt
gcjwebplugin uses the third form to communicate with the appletviewer through named pipes.

it should use for sending commands to gcjwebplugin (OUTPUT).
