:We could always create an additional task "Strip control codes and extended characters from a string/Top and tail" with such details. --[[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 10:24, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 
:: No point. Anyone wanting stripping of non-ASCII won't want it done just at the front and back of the string. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 14:03, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
 
:The reason I didn't go for "any sets of chars", is that the logic may be different. Control codes and extended characters may be filtered without a table lookup (on an ascii based system). I think it would be a good idea to create an additional task to "Strip characters not belonging to a set" to cover this. --[[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 10:40, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
