Hi,
length() returns the length in characters, which
for ASCII is also the number of bytes. To get
the bits, just multiply by 8.

Unicode can get pretty hairy, but
Hi,
I'd like to push all sequences of capitalized words
onto an array.

languages (C, I'm

'as soon as possible' (scawwy!), because it says that
every time I try to install anything.
But it must not be absolutely necessary, since I have
managed to install a couple of modules. I
