If the string length is known, then memcpy or memmove can be more efficient than strcpy, so some programs use them to optimize C string manipulation.

TTM Is a recursive, interpretive language designed primarily for string manipulation, text editing, macro definition and expansion, and other applications generally classified as systems programming.

It adds to Algol-style languages a string type ( akin to a flex array of char ) and built-in operators for string manipulation and character handling.
25.
The main advantage of symbolic string manipulation is that it can be completely integrated with the rest of the programming language, rather than being a separate, special purpose subunit.
26.
Personally I'd do it in python ( string manipulation in bash is icky ) but just about anything ( perl, bash, python, tcl, ksh ) will do.
27.
An empirical study found scripting languages ( such as Python ) more productive than conventional languages ( such as C and Java ) for a programming problem involving string manipulation and search in a dictionary.
28.
Note that full string manipulation is not available ( some templates providing such functionality have been created, but they are inefficient and imperfect ) and neither are certain standard programming features such as loops and variable assignment.
29.
There are also some browsers ( IE in particular ) that are extremely bad at string manipulation in Javascript and so if they rewrite their code to include too much of that, it can grind things down.

:: : : : I'm no full time computer programmer, and I recognize fully well the value of tailoring your work to your particular situation, but we're talking about simple string manipulation here, not regexes.
