What do you actually mean by "clean up"? Make the code shorter and,
maybe, more obfuscated? Why?

sub trim {
my $string = shift;
chomp( $string );
$string =~ s,^\s+,,;
$string =~ s,\s+$,,;
return $string;
}
This is clean _to me_, but I have no idea if you really need that chomp()
thing. Never tested the code above.
