Restricted strings are restricted to holding characters between #\x0 and #\xFF. Unrestricted strings can hold any character between #\x0 and #x\u10FFFF. Chicken characters in fact go up to #x\u1FFFFF. This says nothing about implementation, just interface. Byte vectors, as distinct from restricted strings, hold integers in the range 0 to 255. -- One Word to write them all, John Cowan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> One Access to find them, http://www.ccil.org/~cowan One Excel to count them all, And thus to Windows bind them. --Mike Champion _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
