That means the parameter s must be a constant text.
This question has long lingered in my brain just could not express it: What happens in your program/translator, if the strings change their physical/relative address? For example if you add/remove units and rebuild. For example if FPC internals decide to add or remove some padding in front of the constants. Will all your translation work go to waste ?
