<String.h> is /not/ standard.  It is part of libg++., which is no longer
part of libstdc++.  You can get libg++ 2.8.x from ftp.gnu.org or other GNU
mirrors.

libstdc++ contains everything included in the C++ Standard (well, almost
everything).  "The C++ Programming Language, Third Edition" by Bjarne
Stroustrup is a good bet.
