<p>There is already a WriteAnsiString ( <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/classes/tstream.writeansistring.html">http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/classes/tstream.writeansistring.html</a>
) with the difference that it also writes out the length.</p>

Yes I know, and I do not want write length only content of string<br>

<p> Adding an additional overload (especially with a name like
WriteString) would IMHO be confusing because of this.</p>

Yes without looking into documentation at first look it can by
confusable<br>
(what about WriteRawString then) ?<br>

<p>Nothing stops you though from writing a class helper that adds a

Yes, I can create also own descendant etc. ... but I am asking for
general solution, which will be useful for all.<br>
