True.  It did take me quite a while to get used to the new string storage
format when I was using ASCIIZ strings in TP.  I do prefer ASCIIZ strings
over the Pascal-style strings though.

I didn't (and still don't :-)) find any real difficulty in debugging ASCIIZ
strings though.  How are they difficult to debug?
