Remember that long discussion on decoding unicode characters from a UTF-8
array? Well, foreach can do that now!

Nice!
One thing you dropped is the "What's new for 0.78" (see
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/changelog.html#new078)... Not a big deal.

Good idea, but what do you do if char array contents come from a C 
function (for example stdin) and are not encoded in UTF-8?

Did I mention that D needs different types for UTF-8 encoded strings and 
strings in the local code page (=C strings)? ;)

char[] a;    // not in UTF-8
...
foreach (char c; a)
    ...            // will not attempt to decode as UTF-8

foreach (dchar c; a)
    ...        // will attempt to decode as UTF-8

I understand the problem with multibyte strings in the local code page.
There are several other encoding schemes, too. D is pretty settled on native
support for UTF. Other encodings will have to be treated much as you'd
handle it in C or C++. The reason is that code pages are obsolete, and UTF
is the future. I understand that Win9x code pages need to be supported for
the time being, and it is supported, just not with any special constructs
for it.

To do a unique type for code page strings, a typedef or a wrapper class
should do the trick. It's not as elegant, but code pages aren't too elegant
anyway <g>.

I've been working on a document outlining how to handle these issues, but
it's just an outline at the moment.
