Yes, Yes I know. I contacted the people at ti about 6 months ago about
this. They said it is not a bug, we shouldn't be filling the mem with
useless garbage like that anyways. And TI did but 65535/2 they did not
anything above 2^15 in character length plus something that will make it
over 65535 and you get a mem error. That BASIC program is what they didnt
acount for. (I was seeing if I could get around it any other way, nope)
