Of course I did mean that in the each string type (UTF8String, 
ANSIString, (UTF16)Widestring and (UCS2)WideString, the content is 
encoded as the native string name requests (of course there right now is 
no type UTF16String and UCS2String, but with all the current examples 
(not using surrogate pairs) the bits in same (and in WideString) are the 
same.)
