I like this. And in general I often fine the entire trio useful, and
adopting the ltrim/trim/rtrim naming makes it nice and tidy.

While I recognize the perl (or whatever the original is) precedent
from chomp/chop, there is precedent for trim/left trim/right trim too.
What *would* one call trim/ltrim to make them consistent with chomp?
