Please do share your thoughts... I must add, that I would be very surprised if Embarcadero doesn't use native encoded string types for the "unicode string" support in the upcoming Delphi under Windows (UTF-16), Linux (UTF-8), Mac (UTF-8) etc.. I'm not 100% sure about the default Mac encoding, but seeing that it comes from FreeBSD, I would guess UTF-8 there too. As for saving text to file...It is universally known to use UTF-8 in such cases, because UTF-8 is the perfect encoding for streaming. Hence the W3C also said all HTML, XML etc should be preferably in UTF-8.
