append, insert, and delete fulfilled by corresponding APIs of GString;

replace() could be implemented with sequence of erase() and insert().
but I have no idea what is the best way to implement substring() yet.
Comment 2 Owen Taylor 2003-05-30 18:16:27 UTC 
Substring is trivial to do as:

substring (GString *str, int index, int len)
{
  return g_string_new_len (str->str, index, MIN (str->len - index, len));
}
