Modifying string length?

Sun, 27 Apr 1997 05:49:38 +0200

Hi everybody!

Is there a way to change a string's length directly?

"s.length:=..." doesn't work, neither (obviously) "length(s):=...".

But I think it's necessary in order to implement some low-level string
manipulation routines efficiently.

BTW: Are the TP string routines (e.g. Insert, Delete) already ported to gpc?
