I don't know why but something reminded me awk.
Imagine having class named "superstring_list":
superstring_list s; vector<string> = s.load_from_file("filename).split_by("\n").trim().replace("a", "b").reverse().remove_first();
Well that's interesting -- I've done some experimenting, it really wouldn't be difficult to support a super string collection that exports string functions, but the semantics get a bit odd on some things. Like is append(string) equivalent to push_back -- I think it would have to be. I can hear the cries now about bloated interface. Of course template<class T> append(const T& val); is a unique function. Anyway, I can see this getting a bit messy. Jeff
