OPEN STRING
Since 3.5
Stream = OPEN STRING [ String ] [ FOR [ READ ] [ WRITE ] ]
This instruction allows you to access a string with the stream interface.
Opening for reading
If the string is opened for reading, the
String argument must be specified.
Then the string contents are accessed sequentially.
Reading a string stream is always possible, whatever the options are.
Opening for writing
If the string is opened for writing, then an internal string buffer accumulates all the written data. This
string buffer is returned by the
CLOSE instruction.
If the
String argument is specified, the internal buffer is initialized with it first.
