appears to have written:
A string could be considered unused when its length is set to 0.
Memory would need to be dynamically allocated in small blocks. The
API should return "no method for string" if the external doesn't
implement strings.
... which wouldn't get us true strings in the mathematical sense of a
free monoid <Alphabet,concat()>, since the empty string is the
identity element for concat()...
Yes, I agree there should be no restriction on empty strings. I also
think there is no need to destroy strings except when the patcher is
closed, so it's not really an issue.
