Thank you, Thien-Thi Nguyen, for your smoothing words:

Right you are: One should always belive in the true goodness and virtue of
all kinds of strings and think positive. :-)

So you mean that one might attain mild happiness and innocent luck from the
interaction with unibyte objects? I am definitely looking forward to it.

But also those benefit from THE-ONE-EDITOR: It establishes the contrast.

But seriously: From the profound advises I received from all of you I learned
that there are some traps related to this topic that have to be avoided or to
be handled which according caution.

So thank you all very much again.

Juergen
