Pass in "Hello World" where? And yes, you shouldn't have to do anything special (especially for English). The functions will work transparently. -Andrei Steph Fox wrote:
Hey Andrei, You can't just say that without giving full details. We've seen all your 'this will cope with Russian, Hebrew, Greek, Japanese and Icelandic' demos. We haven't seen what happens to English, French or German - ever. So what happens if I pass in "Hello World", in English, and it's regarded as an an IS_UNICODE string? Would I know about it? Is there anything special I should do? Or does it just happen as always, and what-was-all-the-fuss-about? - Steph
