I have been a lurker for some time but have been faithfully
reading a learning. I am spoiled by Visual Basic 64K length
strings and am feeling limited with FB 256 byte ones.
I am porting some Visual Basic stuff to Mac for a chemistry
product and wonder if anyone has some code to handle blocks
of memory as if they were large string variables.I'd like to allocate a 32K block and have a functions to
append data, read it out a byte, block, or line at a time
and one to return the length. Anyone got these?--
