For a UTF-8 string you can put it in a Glib::ustring then use erase() to delete the first N characters.
To get character N use Glib::ustring[]. If you have a UTF-8 char * but not a ustring and don't want to make one, the raw glib equivalents work as well.
I dunno about fgets and sscanf but if they don't make any assumptions about 1 character == 1 byte they're prolly safe to use.
