I'd like to propose a change that has no semantic effect on the SRFI, just renaming of string-trim, string-trim-right and string-trim-both. I think string-trim-both would be the most commonly-used of the three; it should be named string-trim. The string-trim-right procedure should be renamed because of the left-to-right language assumption. CURRENT PROPOSED string-trim string-trim-head string-trim-right string-trim-tail string-trim-both string-trim Note that in MIT Scheme (string-trim " hi ") ==> "hi".
