I just want to clear something up.

With StringKeys (the ones currently in use) is this true:

AAAA is closer to ZZZ than AAAB?

I *think* that to check keys to find the key that is closest you take each
letter in turn, and if you run off the end of any of the strings for take the
letter to be \0 (letter with a value of 0, not '0').

So the above becomes:

ZZZ0
AAAA
AAAB

and at position 4, A is closer to 0 than B.

It this right?

AGL
