: strtrim (s)

Remove leading and trailing whitespace from s.

If s is a matrix, strtrim trims each row to the length of longest string. If s is a cell array of strings, operate recursively on each string element.

For example:

strtrim ("    abc  ")
     ⇒  "abc"

strtrim ([" abc   "; "   def   "])
     ⇒  ["abc  "  ; "  def"]
