For the life of me I can't figure out an easy way to remove the first couple of characters from a String. I looked in my Ruby book, searched online, and checked the documentation for the String class. I must be missing something obvious. Could someone let me know if there is a method that I can use to do this, or if there is some other trick to it. Thanks, The SketchUp Artist
