Stringlen now can get the real byte,not real length.
In China,Japan ,etc....a character use 2Byte(8bit) not 1byte.There hasn't any environment variable to let user define his own languge,and A_Language can do nothing here.
IF a string contains a character and a number,it's length need to be 2 not 3.Then we can devide the string to 2 parts not 3 parts.
BTW, Hotstrings and Auto-replace cannot be directly used in these contries.This bug has found by me for years,the reason why I did not post it here because I knew many people will occur this and then you will improve it quickly.Today,It still be there.
Wish good news in next version.

It is beyond StringLen, it would need AHK to be more or less rewritten to support Unicode, which isn't a small task and is unlikely to happen soon...
(Although it can do some Unicode tasks by calling Windows functions: I was able to show Japanese text in GUI.)
