Hi.  Thanks for the comment.  I looked thru resource.h in the same
directory, and see MAX_STRING_LEN is defined at 255.  Would using that
be acceptable, or should I add a new define, something like #define
MAX_SUBKEY_LEN 255 ?  If I should add a new define, should I add it to
resource.h or directly to main.c?
