The last time I checked, Pascal used strings that had a length byte as
their first character, instead of being null-terminated. The
conversion from one form to the other is pretty easy.

At one time I used a hybrid string form internally:
length + string + null termination

and I could then use it as a pascal string or a C string, depending on
whether I specified it starting at byte 0 or byte 1.
