Overview
This unit controls a list of items. There is a maximum of 64 kb
of data (using DosMem will not solve this limitation).
Each item in the list is allocated a position number. All items
in the list must be of the same type.
As the list uses an array type base (array on the heap), it is not
ideal for lots of deletions or insertions because all the memory
has to be shifted up or down. It is however fast on lists which do
not change size often.
A list has a size, the total number of items in the list (not the
maximum size). Once the list has been initialized, there are
0 items in the list.
The type ListData determines the type of item found in the list.
This may be any standard type (Word, Byte, etc.) or a user
defined type.
Warning
No range checking is performed on any of the methods.
