Useful Functions

string TrimRight(string src, string chrs)
{
    integer i = llStringLength(src);
    do;while(~llSubStringIndex(chrs, llGetSubString(src, i = ~ -i, i)) && i);
    return llDeleteSubString(src, -~i, 0xFFFF);
}

string TrimLeft(string src, string chrs)
{
    integer i = ~llStringLength(src);
    do;while(i && ~llSubStringIndex(chrs, llGetSubString(src, (i = -~i), i)));
    return llDeleteSubString(src, 0xFFFF0000, ~-i);
}

string TrimBoth(string src, string chrs)
{
    integer i = ~llStringLength(src);
    do;while(i && ~llSubStringIndex(chrs, llGetSubString(src, (i = -~i), i)));
    i = llStringLength(src = llDeleteSubString(src, 0xFFFF0000, (~-(i))));
    do;while(~llSubStringIndex(chrs, llGetSubString(src, (i = ~-i), i)) && i);
    return llDeleteSubString(src, (-~(i)), 0xFFFF);
}
