9.2 FORM Strings

The format of a FORM string in GNAT is: 

     "keyword=value,keyword=value,...,keyword=value"

where letters may be in upper or lower case, and there are no spaces between values. The order of the entries is not important. Currently the following keywords defined. 

     TEXT_TRANSLATION=[YES|NO]
     SHARED=[YES|NO]
     WCEM=[n|h|u|s|e|8|b]
     ENCODING=[UTF8|8BITS]

The use of these parameters is described later in this section.
