Hi Chris

How about:
  inline bool append(char chr)
  {
    bool result = 0;
    
    if (str_length < Alloced_length)
    {
      Ptr[str_length++]=chr;
    }
    else
    {
      if (realloc(str_length+1))
      {
        result = 1;
      }
      else
      {
        Ptr[str_length++]=chr;
      }
    }
    return result;
  }


I don't have a HP around to test this, but this one should work.

Tschau
