       The package textutil::string provides miscellaneous string manipulation commands.

       The complete set of procedures is described below.

       ::textutil::string::chopstring
              A convenience command. Removes the last character of string and returns the shortened string.

       ::textutil::string::tailstring
              A convenience command. Removes the first character of string and returns the shortened string.

       ::textutil::string::capstring
              Capitalizes the first character of string and returns the modified string.

       ::textutil::string::capEachWordstring
              Capitalizes  the  first  character  of  word  of the string and returns the modified string. Words
              quoted with either backslash or dollar-sign are left untouched.

       ::textutil::string::uncapstring
              The complementary operation to ::textutil::string::cap. Forces the first character  of  string  to
              lower case and returns the modified string.

       ::textutil::string::longestCommonPrefixListlist::textutil::string::longestCommonPrefix ?string...?
              Computes  the  longest  common  prefix for either the strings given to the command, or the strings
              specified in the single list, and returns it as the result of the command.

              If no strings were specified the result is the empty string.  If only one  string  was  specified,
              the string itself is returned, as it is its own longest common prefix.
