+ -- This routine simply takes its argument and converts it to wide string
+ -- format. In the context of the Wide_Image attribute, the argument is
+ -- the corresponding 'Image attribute. Any wide character escape sequences
+ -- in the string are converted to the corresponding wide character value.
+ -- No syntax checks are made, it is assumed that any such sequences are
+ -- validly formed (this must be assured by the caller), and results from
+ -- the fact that Wide_Image is only used on strings that have been built
+ -- by the compiler, such as images of enumeration literals. If the method
+ -- for encoding is a shift-in, shift-out convention, then it is assumed
+ -- that normal (non-wide character) mode holds at the start and end of
+ -- the argument string. EM indicates the wide character encoding method.
+ -- Note: in the WCEM_Brackets case, the brackets escape sequence is used
+ -- only for codes greater than 16#FF#.
