are you not a "hacker" in the old school sense of the phrase? simple look at
the existing and you will see one of two basic formats and possibly one that
incorporates both... the most obvious format is the null terminated which
doesn't care about string length other than seeking to the first nul character
in the field... that C style... pascal style carries a string length byte at
the beginning of the string chatacter array ;)
