String type

This is used to store character string. Used to indicate file names, or messages to be broadcast to players.

 Valid syntax: "maps/jrwiz1.bsp" or "ouch!\

" Use \

for newline.

Note: that character strings cannot be modified, or concatenated. Because they are stored at fixed locations in memory, and if would be postentially troublesome to allow modification.
