Mike, Based on a lot of similar feedback, we have updated the Functional Requirements to the following (thanks to Christian Altenbach for his work on this):
------------------------------ Removes all backspaces (Slash Code: \b, ASCII Hex: 0x08) and the characters preceding them. If there are N consecutive backspaces, N preceding characters will be removed. Extra backspaces are discarded whenever the edited string reaches zero length. This VI is useful for terminal programs that are processing user input received by TCP-IP. ------------------------------ Hopefully this catches all of our limit conditions (empty string, all backspaces, no backspaces, etc). Yes, we will be testing for accuracy as well as performance.
