  AString: A length-safe string class. Internally maintains
  a length as well as a zero terminator, so very fast for concatenation

  Attributes:
   - zero-based indexing
   - maintains zero terminator for passing as (readonly) c-style string (AsPChar)
   - fast for concatenation
   - no inherent length limit

  You can write to it as pchar by calling SetMaxLength, using AsPChar,
  then calling UpdateLength to set the length based on the term.

  For Sibyl it is clumsier but faster for concatenating
  than AnsiString and I trust it more...

  For extra safety it explicitly checks that this is a valid instance of
  AString on every method call (using an internal magic number)
    Note :- because of the exception handling this is probably quite slow.

  You can also call the global procedure
    CheckAllAStringsDestroyed
  at the end of the program to make sure there are no memory leaks
  due to AStrings not being destroyed.

  V1.2 28/6/00
    Added ReadLn and WriteLn methods (for text files)
    Added Character index property
  V1.1 27/6/00
    Added:
      Delete - delete a seciton of string
      Assign methods
      AsString property
      CharPosition function
      ExtractNextValue method
        This method, unlike my original string version, does not
        alter the main string. Rather it takes and increments
        a starting position.

  V1.0
    Completed basic functionality
    Used in NewView for decoding help topics. Fast!
