-- part contents for background part 1
----- text -----
Constant text values are created with  "..."
Alterable text values are created with the 
utilities BLANKS and COPY. 
The text concatenation operator '&' also 
creates alterable strings.

Text values are assigned to each other with the operator := 
If the assigned text is longer than the new value it is 
padded with spaces.  A special case is when NOTEXT is 
assigned to a text value in which case it is effectively blanked.

Text values are compared with the six usual operators. 

Text values  are equal if they are both empty or have the 
same length and same character sequence.  A text value 
ranks lower if it is empty or the first non-equal character ranks lower.
