  Description
 
    The string types are used as parameters by several procedures.
 
    The Exec procedure uses the types PathStr and ComStr. PathStr is
    the type passed to the FExpand procedure. It is one of the types
    passed to the FindFirst and FSearch procedures. The FSplit
    procedure expects parameters of the types PathStr, DirStr, NameStr,
    and ExtStr.
 
    The type requirements are not enforced if {$V-} is set.
