If it's a really big string that won't fit comfortably on one line (IIRC C has a facility for multiline strings), you can do x := "One ring to blahdy blah, " & "One ring to blahdy blahdy blah, " & "One ring to blahdy blah and blahdy blahdy blah!"; providing that x is suitably large. The compiler might throw away the & function and replace it with one long string in the above case (if it was more efficient to do so), since the expression doesn't involve a variable string, but that's just a guess. Would GNAT do that? Just curious. hth, Chris
