<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
String Utility Functions
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
various string-related functions
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
This section describes a number of utility functions for creating,
duplicating, and manipulating strings.
</para>
<para>
Note that the functions g_printf(), g_fprintf(), g_sprintf(), g_snprintf(),
g_vprintf(), g_vfprintf(), g_vsprintf() and g_vsnprintf() are declared in
the header <filename>gprintf.h</filename> which is <emphasis>not</emphasis>
included in <filename>glib.h</filename> (otherwise using
<filename>glib.h</filename> would drag in <filename>stdio.h</filename>), so
you'll have to explicitly include <literal>&lt;glib/gprintf.h&gt;</literal>
in order to use the GLib printf() functions.
</para>
<para id="string-precision">
While you may use the printf() functions to format UTF-8 strings, notice that
the precision of a <literal>&percnt;Ns</literal> parameter is interpreted as the
number of <emphasis>bytes</emphasis>, not <emphasis>characters</emphasis> to print.
On top of that, the GNU libc implementation of the printf() functions has the "feature"
that it checks that the string given for the <literal>&percnt;Ns</literal> parameter
consists of a whole number of characters in the current encoding. So, unless you
are sure you are always going to be in an UTF-8 locale or your know your text is restricted
to ASCII, avoid using <literal>&percnt;Ns</literal>.
If your intention is to format strings for a certain number of columns, then
<literal>&percnt;Ns</literal> is not a correct solution anyway, since it fails to take
wide characters (see g_unichar_iswide()) into account.

@Returns: %TRUE if @c is an ASCII control character.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_ascii_isdigit ##### -->
<para>
Determines whether a character is digit (0-9).
</para>
<para>

64bit IEEE-compatible doubles.
</para>
<para>
The typical usage would be something like:

<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_strchug ##### -->
<para>
Removes leading whitespace from a string, by moving the rest of the
characters forward.
</para>
<para>
This function doesn't allocate or reallocate any memory; it modifies @string
in place. The pointer to @string is returned to allow the nesting of functions.
</para>
<para>
Also see g_strchomp() and g_strstrip().
</para>
@string: a string to remove the leading whitespace from.
@Returns: @string.

<para>
Removes trailing whitespace from a string.
</para>
<para>
This function doesn't allocate or reallocate any memory; it modifies @string in
place. The pointer to @string is returned to allow the nesting of functions.
</para>
<para>
Also see g_strchug() and g_strstrip().
</para>
@string: a string to remove the trailing whitespace from.
@Returns: @string.
<!-- ##### MACRO g_strstrip ##### -->
<para>
Removes leading and trailing whitespace from a string. See g_strchomp() and
g_strchug().
</para>
@string: a string to remove the leading and trailing whitespace from.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_strdelimit ##### -->
<para>
Converts any delimiter characters in @string to @new_delimiter.
Any characters in @string which are found in @delimiters are changed
to the @new_delimiter character. Modifies @string in place, and returns
@string itself, not a copy. The return value is to allow nesting such as
<literal>g_ascii_strup (g_strdelimit (str, "abc", '?'))</literal>.
</para>
@string: the string to convert.
@delimiters: a string containing the current delimiters, or %NULL to use the
standard delimiters defined in #G_STR_DELIMITERS.
@new_delimiter: the new delimiter character.
@Returns: @string.
<!-- ##### MACRO G_STR_DELIMITERS ##### -->
<para>
The standard delimiters, used in g_strdelimit().
</para>
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_strescape ##### -->
<para>
Escapes the special characters '\b', '\f', '\n', '\r', '\t', '\' and
'&quot;' in the string @source by inserting a '\' before
them. Additionally all characters in the range 0x01-0x1F (everything
below SPACE) and in the range 0x7F-0xFF (all non-ASCII chars) are
replaced with a '\' followed by their octal representation. Characters
supplied in @exceptions are not escaped.
</para>
<para>
g_strcompress() does the reverse conversion.
</para>
@source: a string to escape.
@exceptions: a string of characters not to escape in @source.
@Returns: a newly-allocated copy of @source with certain
characters escaped. See above.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_strcompress ##### -->
<para>
Replaces all escaped characters with their one byte equivalent. It
does the reverse conversion of g_strescape().
</para>
@source: a string to compress.
@Returns: a newly-allocated copy of @source with all escaped
character compressed.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_strcanon ##### -->
<para>
For each character in @string, if the character is not in @valid_chars,
replaces the character with @substitutor. Modifies @string in place,
and return @string itself, not a copy. The return value is to allow
nesting such as <literal>g_ascii_strup (g_strcanon (str, "abc", '?'))</literal>.
</para>
@string: a nul-terminated array of bytes.
@valid_chars: bytes permitted in @string.
@substitutor: replacement character for disallowed bytes.
@Returns: @string.
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_strsplit ##### -->
<para>
