Hello,

Would it be ok to increase the max length of a string variable in Csound ?
See attached csd, a long string causes a strcpy buffer overflow.

I would need long strings to create lists of parameter names, where a
macro should be called with parameter name as an argument.
I'm parsing the string with another macro, popping each parameter name
one by one from the long string.
This way, it will be possible to do simple iteration on lists in Csound.
