Hi there,

This is my first post, I've been playing with Processing for a few days because I have had to teach it this week(!)

Processing sufficiently similar to Flash and Director (my usual tools) that I have got up to speed quickly enough, but I'd like to do some stuff with text, and the documentation seems a little thin on how to work with strings, referring only to Sun's (monolithic) Java documentation, and there I got lost. I haven't done much Java programming, and only know a bit of the API.

Are ALL the properties and methods of the java.lang.string class available in Processing?

I notice there is charAt, indexOf and substring, but I am particularly interested in tokenizing, concatenation and so on. In Java this would require the tokenizer class and the stringBuffer class, but it's not clear how that would work with processing.

Is there some general documentation somewhere about using the standard Java classes (in particular I am interested in java.util.regex) in Processing?

Thanks in advance for any help.
