    StringCollection is an variable sized array of lines which are strings.

    WARNING:

	This class is temporary (a historic leftover) - it may change or

	even vanish in the future. Use OrderedCollections or other standard

	classes to represent collections of strings.

    StringCollection used to be called Text, but this is a very bad name

     - there is something totally different also named Text in ST-80 ...
