stringlifecycle Strings created at the interpreter are stored in a rotating buffer. This is used by both strings and arrays, and is used by words operating on strings. Strings inside definitions get compiled into the system memory. You can copy a string to the buffer space using +s:temp or to the system *memory by using +s:keep If you won't be using the string quickly, it's best to put it in system memory.
