Fine with me: let's kick all those complicated utf-8 and utf-16 ===================== Isn't UCS-2 enough for all possible coverage on the Earth planet ? Even chineese people use "64K-" dictionary (the sipmplified alphabet) for computer typing.
PS: UCS-4 (and UTF-8 BTW) looks appropriate for future contacts with aliens with their unknown alphabets, though :) Is "to be ready for contacts with them" the purpose ? Then UCS-2 with surrogate pairs is a solution as well & doesn't impose double memory allocation. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
