Hans,
>Oh yeah, that first EVAL with the %TRIM is pretty expensive.

In my CGI programs I use %trim() extensively, but I don't necessarily need
to do a %trim() but instead I could do a %trimr() because I just need to get
rid of the right most characters 90% of the time. How much do I gain, if
anything, by doing a %trimr() vs. a %trim()?
