[CODE] MAX_STRING_LENGTH

From: Robert Moon (LegalWriter@earthlink.net)

After adding a few hundred new spells and skills, I have run out of room
when trying to display them all using page_string thanks to a "if
(strlen(buf) >= MAX_STRING_LENGTH - 70)" check.  Accordingly, I am planning
on increasing the value of MAX_STRING_LENGTH from is current size of 8192
to something larger.  I can't think of any "cons" by doing so, but I wanted
to get feedback from the newslist to be sure.  Does anyone see potential
problems with increasing the size of that variable?  What should the safest
maximum value be?  Any input is most appreciated.  Thanks.
