So does that mean if you have {$H+} enabled, then in the example
below, the p1(ansistring) version will be called?


 procedure p1 (s : shortstring); overload;
 procedure p1 (s : ansistring); overload;
 procedure p1 (s : widestring); overload;

implementation

procedure main;
begin
  p1('xx');
end;

I'm trying too Florian.  And clearly my initial idea of this was wrong. :-(
