IMHO the utf8 is not a done deal, and Delphi compatibility requires at least also UTF16 on other platforms. QT is utf16, and so is Cocoa. Only GTK is utf8 So I would say UTF16, and maybe, if there is demand, some can get utf8 :-) -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
