Seems like I remember Ken also suggesting another solution which even I can understand:

function unpadded pText
  return word 1 to -1 of pText -- Ken's solution
end unpadded

At least I *think* it was Mr. Ray....

Howzit,

I needed to do that and was about to (once again) reinvent the wheel, but decided to use the Rev search engine instead, and came across this handy regular expression function from Ken Ray, posted circa 2006. Works great! Thank you, Mr. Ray.

Sadhu

function trimWS pText
-- Remove all leading and trailing whitespace characters.
-- I.E., space, tab, carriage return, line feed, form feed.

 return replaceText(pText,"(^\s+)|(\s+$)",empty)

end trimWS
