  11. You can use these FW_CString functions:
  12.   void ExportPascal(FW_PascalChar* buffer) const;
  13.   void ReplaceAll(const FW_PascalChar* string);
  14.  
  15. To convert from an FW_CString to a Pascal string, call ExportPascal:
  16.  
  17.   Str255 pascalString;
  18.   FW_CString string("Test");
  19.   string.ExportPascal(pascalString);
  20.  
  21. To create an FW_CString from a Pascal string, do this:
  22.  
  23.   FW_CString string;
  24.   string.ReplaceAll(pascalString);
