Re:How quickly can you remove spaces from a string? by robterrell on Friday January 20, 2017 @07:39PM (#13448118)
I'm guessing you're just not old enough to have heard anyone refer to extended ascii?

If you used Macs in the 80s and 90s and shared files with PC users, you heard about it all the time, because high-ascii characters would map incorrectly across the platforms.
