String and character manipulation commands

These commands provide functionality to classify characters, convert characters between character and numeric values, convert an index into a string, determine the length of a string, extract a range of characters from a string, replicate a string a number of times, and transliterate a string (similar to the UNIX tr(1) program).

cindex(TCL)
returns the character indexed by the given expression from string

clength(TCL)

crange(TCL)

csubstr(TCL)
returns a substring of characters from a string

ctoken(TCL)

ctype(TCL)
tests whether characters in a string are of a given class

replicate(TCL)
replicates a string n times

translit(TCL)
