A friend has an application in Basic that runs fine on the IBM-PC but fails
to run when ported to his TRS-80 model 100 portable computer.
The program causes "out of string space" even though Basic reports more
than 10K of free space.

Does anyone know how string space is allocated in Z80 Microsoft Basic
vs 8086 Microsoft Basic?
