import java.text.CharacterIterator;


A segment of a character array representing a fragment
of text.  It should be treated as immutable even though
the array is directly accessible.  This gives fast access
to fragments of text without the overhead of copying
around characters.  This is effectively an unprotected
String.


The Segment implements the java.text.CharacterIterator
interface to support use with the i18n support without
copying text into a string.
