Trimming Blanks from the Ends of a String

(For all intents and purposes, this project is dead, but let us just call it "Deferred Indefinitely". Shall we?)

Problem

You want to strip the leading and trailing whitespace from a string.

Use String#strip:

% string = "   this is a string   "
% string.strip
"this is a string"
