trusty (3) firestring_estr_chug.3.gz

NAME

       firestring_estr_chug - remove whitespace from the beginning of an estring

SYNOPSIS

       #include <firestring.h>
       -lfirestring

       void firestring_estr_chug(struct firestring_estr_t *string)

DESCRIPTION

       firestring_estr_chug  shortens  string  by  moving  the start forward until the string begins with a non-
       whitespace character or is empty.

CAVEATS

       This  function  moves  the  starting   pointer   inside   string.    If   string   was   allocated   with
       firestring_estr_alloc(3), (as opposed to constructed manually pointing inside other memory), future calls
       to firestring_estr_free(3) will fail if this function trimmed any space from the start of the string.  In
       these cases, use firestring_estr_ip_chug(3) instead.

RETURN VALUE

       None.
