/* A dynamic string consists of record that records the size of an
allocated string and the pointer to that string. The actual string
is a normal zero byte terminated string that can be used with the
usual string functions. The major difference is that the
dynamic_string routines know how to get more space if it is needed
by allocating new space and copying the current string. */
