    Module StringConversion Operations:
    -----------------------------------
    This module defines:
      typedefs: stdStr, stdChar, stdOstream, stdOstringstream
      macros:   stdOut, compare, AM, PM, and a few message strings

    This module also defines the class Convert with static members:
      std::wstring ToWstring(const std::string& src);
      std::wstring ToWstring(const std::wstring& src);
      std::string ToString(const std::string& src);
      std::string ToString(const std::wstring& src);

    The idea is to accept either ascii or unicode strings and convert
    them to one of three specific types: std::string, std::wstring, or
    stdStr.
