34 -- This package contains generic subprograms used for converting between
35 -- sequences of Character and Wide_Character. All access to wide character
36 -- sequences is isolated in this unit.
38 -- This unit may be used directly from an application program by providing
39 -- an appropriate WITH, and the interface can be expected to remain stable.
