| |
| Character types |
| --------------- |
| |
| Besides :ref:`universal types <type.univ>` also defines a collection |
| of text types. Most of these types come from the past trying to capture |
| the fragments of long-forgotten technologies. |
| |
| These *character* types are all scalars. They are similar to |
| :ref:`OctetString <univ.OctetString>` except that they all operate on |
| text, not bytes. |
