Isn't this nicely provided by "new Strings" ?

If you are naive and just use them as you have been acquainted to at 
ANSI times, your programs might get slow when using MyString[i];

But if you want to speed things up you can either try to replace the 
MyString[i];by some more decent (and complex) iterator implementation or 
try to set the type of the strings in question (and if necessary convert 
them) to an appropriate ANSI variant.
