[NetBehaviour] Your do is of reference the they with be theynone work

[james morris]

Hi Alan,

Thanks for the offer, but the likelihood is they probably won't help me
much with this. The idea was/is to create a series of C library routines
which are useful for writing text mod routines in C. Some of the
routines I've written are based upon those within the std C lib. Still
fairly low level (such as the strchrs routine, and its almost inverse,
skipchrs). Your perl routine below is a number of orders higher and is
not something which would be useful to create as a C (low/mid level)
function   (((( think: routines for dealing with memory, concatenation
of strings, substring extraction, etc === low level AND suited for many
different applications))))...

Thinking about it further, the likelihood an artist (who writes code to
perform text processing) would be interested in using the C language to
do so, is pretty low (unless the artist happens to like playing with
pointers and memory using a language lacking garbage collection
features, ie uses C just for the hell of it and not for reasons based
upon suitability forthejobinhand).

Does anybody on this list write code in C ??? Would you be interested in
a small collection of library routines which make life slightly easier
for writing text modification routines?

Back to the question of you posting your code..   I expect others would
be interested (and I am actually too :-) ).
