I believe the documentation you are looking for is:
http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?DanielKeep/TextInD
It is more about understanding UTF than it is about learning strings.
Thanks, that does appear to be the answer.
So if a string is too long, and I shorten it by one character, I'd
better test it with std.utf.validate(str). If it doesn't throw an
error, it's ok. Otherwise shorten it again and retry.
I hope I understood this correctly. (I'm sure there's a more elegant
way to do this, but here I'm going for a simple approach, as I should
rarely be encountering this problem.)
