3023.0. "3.1 mapper string length limitation?" by CSC32::B_ALTMIRE () Fri Feb 21 1997 15:32

Hi,
	With the VMS 2.1 mapper it is possible to build large strings within 
a map via concatenation but in Unix 3.1 the limit seems to be 256 characters
in a string. Is this a 3.1 mapper limitation or a Unix limitation? I have
a customer that is having problems with concatenation and feels the 256 
character limitation may be part of the problem.

Thanks,
Bill Altmire
