As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Java strings dont have this restriction. Would be great if an RPG
procedure could new up a Java StringBuilder object and then append
characters to it. Is that doable now?
Yes, we can create Java StringBuffer (which is what you meant, I assume)
today in RPG. The problem (as is always the case with Java) is
performance.
I find it easier to just use dynamic allocation and deal with the string
in chunks, this eliminates the 64k limitation without having to resort
to Java.
But, if IBM provides expanded string lengths, we'll be able to use all
of RPG's BIFs on them, and that makes everything faster and easier.
