 36.1 Shared And Read Only Strings
 =================================
 
 The procedures described in this section are deprecated because explicit
 shared substrings are planned to disappear from Guile.
 
    Instead, all strings will be implemented using sharing internally,
 combined with a copy-on-write strategy.  Once internal string sharing
 and copy-on-write have been implemented, it will be unnecessary to
 preserve the concept of read only strings.

* Shared Substrings           Strings which share memory with each other.
* Read Only Strings           Treating certain non-strings as strings.
