Tachyon, strings are nothing more than an array of type Byte.

Except that they're arrays of Shorts, since they store unicode ;-)

I'm having a little trouble with getting Chr() to work properly as an array.

Try this:

Local N = 65
Local Text$ = Chr N

===== Does the same as =====

Local N = 65
Local Text$ = String.FromShorts ( Short Ptr Varptr N , 1 )

(Not the same like Short arrays, but it replaces the Chr operator)
