Dear All,

I intend to use the result of the .length request as the upper limit of a loop iterating over every character in a string.

Is there a functional equivalent to .chop which begins at the first rather than the last character of the string and helps me save the chopped character in a register or is the only way to pick each character in a string to use .substring, looping over repeated copies of an original string, shifting the start and end values step by step?

Thank you for all hints and pointers to documentation beyond the gnu groff manual.

Best,

Oliver.
