What's the recommended way to determine if a String contains another String? I found one way.
'*substring*' matches: string
I'm sure I could use a regular expression, but that seems like overkill. At first I thought I should use include: or contains: from Collection, but apparently not.

string includesSubstring: 'substring'

While we are on the subject, is there an easy way to replace a substring with another one? I couldn't figure out any other way than to collect: the substrings and then put them back together... Rob

string includesSubstring: 'substring'
Thanks! It looks like the method name is "includesSubString:". Notice the last capital "S". That seems weird. There is another method named "includesSubstring:caseSensitive:" where that "s" isn't uppercase.
