RE: Null terminated string length

You could prototype and use the C runtime strlen() function. That would be
about as efficient as it gets.

Subject: Null terminated string length

What is correct code for get the length of a null terminated string?

Length = %Len(%Str(ptrString:129)); 

That seems kind of inefficient. Better way? Scan for null terminator?
