OK, that would help. I'll try that now in tiOPF v3. When specifying
that mode, do I still need to specify {$H+}? What happens when I
don't specify {$H+}?

Wasn't there lots of "votes" from many that string is UTF-8 encode
under Linux, Unix, MacOSX, and UTF-16 under Windows? Thus avoiding any
conversion speed penalties on all non-Windows platforms. Or is
defaulting to UTF-16 just the first step of implementing Unicode
support, and UTF-8 will follow for all non-Windows platforms later?
