+# String policies in SDL3.
+
+## Encoding.
+
+Unless otherwise specified, all strings in SDL, across all platforms, are
+UTF-8 encoded and can represent the full range of [Unicode](https://unicode.org).
+
+
+## The SDL Get String Rule.
+
+Did you see 'SDL_GetStringRule' in the wiki or headers? Here are the details
+that aren't worth copying across dozens of functions' documentation.
+
+tl;dr: If an SDL function returns a `const char *` string, do not modify or
+free it, and if you need to save it, make a copy right away.
+
+In several cases, SDL wants to return a string to the app, and the question
+in any library that does this is: _who owns this thing?_
+
+The answer in almost all cases, is that SDL does, but not for long.
+
+The pointer is only guaranteed to be valid until the next time the event
+queue is updated, or SDL_Quit is called.
+
+The reason for this is memory safety.
+
+There are several strings that SDL provides that could be freed at
+any moment. For example, an app calls SDL_GetAudioDeviceName(), which returns
+a string that is part of the internal audio device structure. But, while this
+function is returning, the user yanks the USB audio device out of the
+computer, and SDL decides to deallocate the structure...and the string!
+Now the app is holding a pointer that didn't live long enough to be useful,
+and could crash if accessed.
+
+To avoid this, instead of calling SDL_free on a string as soon as it's done
+with it, SDL adds the pointer to a list. This list is freed at specific
+points: when the event queue is run (for ongoing cleanup) and when SDL_Quit
+is called (to catch things that are just hanging around). This allows the
+app to use a string without worrying about it becoming bogus in the middle
+of a printf() call. If the app needs it for longer, it should copy it.
+
+When does "the event queue run"? There are several points:
+
+- If the app calls SDL_PumpEvents() _from any thread_.
+- SDL_PumpEvents is also called by several other APIs internally:
+  SDL_PollEvent(), SDL_PeepEvents(), SDL_WaitEvent(),
+  SDL_WaitEventTimeout(), and maybe others.
+- If you are using [the main callbacks](main-functions#main-callbacks-in-sdl3),
+  the event queue can run immediately after any of the callback functions
+  return.
+
+Note that these are just guaranteed minimum lifespans; any given string
+might live much longer--some might even be static memory that is _never_
+deallocated--but this rule promises that the app has a safe window.
+
+Note that none of this applies if the return value is `char *` instead of
+`const char *`. Please see the specific function's documentation for how
+to handle those pointers.
