strchug

fun strchug(string: String): String

Removes leading whitespace from a string, by moving the rest of the characters forward.

This function doesn't allocate or reallocate any memory; it modifies @string in place. Therefore, it cannot be used on statically allocated strings.

The pointer to @string is returned to allow the nesting of functions.

Also see func@GLib.strchomp and func@GLib.strstrip.

Return

the modified @string
