%Sxx Pushes a pointer to the current string value for the xx attribute onto the stack.
The only operation that can be performed on the string pointer is to use %= to
compare the string with another string whose pointer is also on the stack.
%Lxx Pushes the length of the xx constant or variable string onto the stack. For
example, if the value of attribute ss is IJKLMN, the sequence ABC%Lss%dDEFG
produces the string ABC6DEFG. However, if xx is the attribute that contains the
%Lxx sequence, the length will be the length of that part of the string that has
been constructed when the %Lxx is encountered. For example, if the value of the
st attribute is ABC%Lst%dDEFG, the constructed string for attribute st is
ABC3DEFG.
