Hello,

Here is my proposal:

Title: Improving Strings manipulation
Dialect: Pharo
Skill Level: Intermediate
Possible Mentor: Stephane Ducasse
Student Name: Daniela Meneses
Context: Pharo offers several good libraries to manipulate collections. However, the Strings API could benefit from a new study and redesign or enhancements.
Goal: The goal of the project is to help rethinking the String manipulation API of Pharo.�
Benefits to the community:�The String class will increment its test coverage, include more useful methods based on ruby and python String API and improve the documentation for some methods.

Cheers,
Daniela Meneses
