Hola Jim,
Ok, mahalo. That looks nice. Thanks for the info. Thanks also to
someone else (Phil?) who sent that. I'm using the trimWS function as I
found it first and it's working great as is, so I don't figure on
changing it. However, more info, more options, more knowledge is
better. The trimWS one line of code is nice too! Da Kine. It does
make sense to me, and I like regular expressions, use them with sed and
VI, etc. ... been working on Unix systems for about 25 years now, so it
didn't look mysterious or anything.
But again, I appreciate your kindness and aloha spirit in responding.
Gratefully,
Sadhu

Hi Sadu,
If it is just leading and trailing chars of the entire string of words or
items or..., you can use:
Put word 1 to -1 of tString into tString.
If it's a string of items use item 1 to -1...
This removes spaces and other "non-word" chars before word 1 and after word
-1. And it's quick.
Aloha from Hawaii
