My thoughts are that the whole business of strings in C++ is anoying, it's a
real shame this can't all be resolved within the standard. I am sure there
are good reasons why things are as they are, but I don't claim to understand
them. I'm still not even sure about std::wstring vs glib:ustring for
example.

Has anyone seen a definative write up on this anywhere?
