IMO it must be possible to predict the encoding of strings

The Delphi Unicode solution: set the proper encoding in TFileStream (? or
TStringList), then the file is converted into UTF-16 on read, and back again
when written to disk. Then the coder has to deal only with UnicodeStrings, and
with AnsiStrings of codepage CP_ACP (system default) if ever required.
and for those, like myself, who never have seen delphi?? don't care about delphi
because it seem(s|ed) to be a bastardization of the pascal language?? i don't
even have a delphi book and cannot find one that comes close enough to lazarus
to be of any benefit :(
