    Yea, and those who wanted to go faster than the Horse and Buggy should have just kept quiet and enjoyed the slow meandering ride

    Nothing wrong with wishing for (and expecting) improvements to an allready great compiler... that is the reason PBP3 is out.

    I agree that common string manipulation things should have been there, but Melabs decided to not do it and be like a BasicStamp alike replacement. Nothing wrong with it. Sometime you need to draw the line somewhere... they did.

    There's some hope I guess.

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    There are some pretty good work-arounds for strings already. Try

    Arraywrite TestString,["This is a pretty good way to load strings into an array",0]

    Hserout [Str TestString]
