Earlier today, I tried to make aim6 have an unlimited text message length, the default was 135 characters.

Turns out that 135 was the string involved, and so I thought I'd freeze the string to 135 thus giving me inf txt message length.

Well first of all this didn't work

Second of all, when I pressed freeze, it like froze the value to 1 and the string went from a length 3 to length 1 and all there was was a 1 in there, so I unfroze it and it began reading string[3] again, but this time the 1st and 2nd characters were like huge for some reason.

I have not tried this on any computers other than my own, and on any other processes except Aim6. I don't know if this is a bug or not or maybe it's just some kind of a one time only thing.

you mean, you searched and froze the value on 1 making the computer "think" you typed one letter?
i guess its probably wasnt a good idea, have you tried to make a script?

This may not be as easy as you think. The text box control may only allocate 135 bytes for an input buffer, and may cause the program to crash if you try to put to many characters in. There's little you can do to fix this, other than to see if you can patch the binary to allow extra characters.
