Do the built-in string functions like strfind,
strrep, and gsub work on binary
data?
I'm trying to figure out what to do about "buffers"
in Yindo. Would an add-on opensource
library that handles more complex binary data
manipulation be appreciated by the group?
Or is somebody working something? We have a buffer
userdata type in Yindo which people
might find handy. I was planning on finishing it
up but started thinking about how it
conflicts somewhat with the built in strlib. e.g
when do you use a buffer, and when can you just
use the string functions.
Regards,
Jim
