Detailed Description

namespace for misc string utility

Author:

carsten burgard <cburgarc@cern.ch>

Date:

May, 2014 This file provides a set of StringUtils that go beyond the capabilities of typical string utility functions (such as provided by boost). This includes fail-proof trimming of strings with multibyte characters and control sequences and parsing helpers that understand and respect parenthesis.

Also implemented are functions that allow easy conversion between HTML-type strings, LaTeX-type strings, unicode strings and plain ascii strings. The aim of these methods is converting symbols and mathematical expressions in strings, including subscript and superscript and special mathematical or greek symbols - they are not intended as a replacement for conversion of entire documents and do not respect text or background colors, sectioning commands, annotations, document meta-information, non-textual elements, custom macro definitions, javascript, or any other features beyond basic text markup.
