Delphi XE does not properly support UTF-8.
That is what I supposed. Of course the developers at Embarcadero did not need to think about portability to other OSes than Windows when crafting the concept.

But obviously fpc needs proper support for UTF-8, as it is constructed to do decent programs for Linux OS. Hence I did suppose/hope that in fpc the code-page aware string type implementation would be versatile enough to support any ANSI code page, UTF-8 and UTF-16 (LE and BE), and be extensible to support for e.g UTF-32 (plus an additional fully dynamic String "brand").

Thanks for your explanations,
