=head1 NAME

String::Strip - Perl extension for fast, commonly used, string operations

=head1

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use String::Strip;

  ...

  StripLTSpace($a);
  StripTSpace($a);
  StripLSpace($a);
  StripSpace($a);


=head1 DESCRIPTION

StripLTSpace - Removes Leading and Trailing spaces from given string

StripTSpace - Removes Trailing spaces from given string

StripLSpace - Removes Leading spaces from given string

StripSpace - Removes all spaces from given string

I do these things often, and these routines tend to be about 35%
faster than the corresponding regex methods.
