[Coco] Strings in DECB

[Theodore (Alex) Evans]

I was talking with a friend.  We had a disagreement about the maximum length of strings under DECB. He claimed it was 128 and I believe d it was 255. So I did some testing. The results were puzzling. I created a string and began extending it. Any attempt to extend a string of 100 characters or more (even with an empty string "") results in an OS error as does any attempt to extend a string past 100 characters, but I can define and use a string up to 255 characters in length.
