Re: 'Line too long' error
« Reply #7 on: Jul 24th, 2016, 5:24pm »
I too try to avoid long code lines that require the horizontal scroll bar. No problem using the underscore continuation character when necessary. I sometimes overlook the problem if the line is just a few characters too long, although I never print out the code.
This brings to mind a similar question I had recently. Is there any limit to the length of a string?

In LBB strings are limited in length only by the amount of available memory (heap). It's hard to predict what the limit will be in practice because it depends on how much memory is being used by other objects (e.g. arrays) and how much is unavailable (e.g. string garbage).
You can use the LBB debugger to find the current heap usage, so subtracting that from the initial allocation (usually 500 Mbytes, unless reduced by an INI file setting) will give you a rough idea of the available memory.
