Character Variables, Character Array Variables
RD $
The PUTMEM and GETMEM instructions are used in common memory and while sharing
access of internal devices (ED).
Note that when addresses 1800h through 7FFFh (viewed from BASIC) are used,
the process will be performed on the common memory and internal device.
• When reading data with the GETMEM instruction, the following illustrates if a
character data greater than the character variable specified as readout variables or
number of bytes to be read in the character array variables (one byte = one
character) is stored.
When RD$ is used as the readout variable
