I find the name W= ide_Wide_Character clumsy, and I would appreciate to have shorter names so = as a personal taste I would simply prefer "Unicode" to "Unicode_Character". Then I realize - and hence I contredict my own previous post - that the imp= ortant concept for the user is the Grapheme cluster . So in fact a UXCharac= ter should simply be a subtype of UXString storing one Grapheme Cluster. Just my 2 cents. Regards, Vincent
