+Text Processing Services
+************************
+
+The modules described in this chapter provide a wide range of string
+manipulation operations and other text processing services.
+
+The :mod:`codecs` module described under :ref:`binaryservices` is also
+highly relevant to text processing. In addition, see the documentation for
+Python's built-in string type in :ref:`textseq`.
