+1 !
Of course a compiler switch to not use the "NewStrings" would be
appropriate.
OTOH IMHO it should be possible to in fact use the "NewStrings" in
Linux with a default encoding of UTF8.
Please get your terms right (I already wrote you this in July!). Those
"NewStrings" are already used on every target that uses Ansistrings as
Ansistrings *are* these "NewStrings". What Delphi 2009 changed was that
String=UnicodeString by default instead of String=AnsiString (and at the
same time they also introduced the "NewStrings" aka code page aware
AnsiString). The UnicodeString type is however not code page aware and
is always UTF-16.
