   Also the idea of using sub-string assignment [], instead of <-1> should be
faster, since this would allow a JMP instead of a SCAN.  You'd have to keep
track of a PTR for EACH array cell however, not just one for the whole array,
since each cell would have a different LEN.

Actually, you could save a bit (in this step, not sure how it would affect things averall) by appending "STRING.TO.APPEND:@FM" -- This way everything would be separate attributes. You'll have to deal with the NULL attribute at the end.

You could also use "@FM:STRING.TO.APPEND" and just do a:
        DEL X<1>
after the TRIM().
