//???RKM??? I would have called this Util.java, but for the bug in the project manager
// 06/11/97 LAB Added frameTarget_* varaibles for convenience in classes
// which need reference to these strings.
// 07/08/97 LAB Added checkValidPercent() function
// Changed GeneralUtils to a "final" class so JIT can inline it.
// 10/09/97 LAB Added Added removeCharAtIndex(String string, int index) function.
// Written by Levi Brown and Rod Magnuson 1.1, July 8, 1997.
