I think of Unicode text as a stream of Unicode characters in some format. I trust that functions that deal with the string Copy, Length, Find, etc., know how to handle it. When doing: MyChar := MyString[1] appropriate function retrieves first unicode character, regardless of encoding. Whether it's utf8, utf16, utf32 or any other future encoding the code should work the same. -- cobines _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
