Re: Is the first character in a string a letter?

While I was at it I should have asked you about trimming a string of leading
white space.

Is there a easy way?

I've been searching the doc and the internet but can't find anything.

Thanks again

There must be an easier way then what I'm doing to determine if the first
character in a string is a valid letter.

My code is getting to big. There must be a better way.


Anything wrong with isalpha(s[0]) ?
