My inclination is to have the protocol just be in ASCII, and put the burden on the application interface to go to/from some multibyte encoding when interfacing with the application. > Personally, I think I'd rather that dictionary entries contain > a length field (whatever encoding) since I've found lists of > null-terminated strings are a great source for implementation > errors. Yeah -- I just feel like it's not worth the bytes. My other thought is that we can infer the string lengths based on the various offsets scattered throughout the bundle, in other words, if all the offsets (i.e. src, dest, custodian, etc) were sorted, we could then infer the various lengths based on the differences. But this is probably harder to read (though more efficient) than just scanning for the null. -m
