Handling a lot of text data, any simple and practical ways?

[richard]

And what if I add some special character to my data array, so when reading it, I do not no longer need to store length of each string? This should allow me to skip all that ASM things

how do imagine that would that work ?

And meanwhile, I have a little problem with usability.

nothing that a state machine approach can't resolve

Well say I add $FF to end of each string.
So I need only to know start address of each sentence
and start reading from there in loop, until inputchar=FF

And for the input, I can't relate capacitive input or encoder handling with my task.
These both are yes/no condition, and mine is analog reading...

precisely what was offered except using the more useful and commonly accepted null in lieu of the FF

its the overall concept of key/sw reading to observe, its a universal concept

Well, my code has no ASM

P.S. A big brother just arrived
But can't make it work with PBP
