<BLOCKQUOTE>A non-copyleft implementation of a string class to use with
compilers that aren't GNU C++.
<P>Strings are reference-counted and reasonably efficiant (eg you
can pass them around, into and out of functions and so on
without worrying too much about the cost).
<P>The associated class EST_Regex can be used to represent regular
expressions.
