Undocumented StdOut limit for console output

[jj2007]

Inspired by the thread on vkdebug PrintString, I investigated about the practical limits of printing to the console.

StdOut fails with error 8, not enough memory, when the string exceeds 62600 bytes on Windows 7-64.
On Windows XP, the limit is 53200 bytes, on Win 8.1 it seems much higher (>2MB).

Accordingly, I have increased the buffer size for the deb macro. Example:

include \masm32\MasmBasic\MasmBasic.inc      ; download
  Init
  Let esi=FileRead$("\Masm32\include\Windows.inc")
  deb 4, "Windows.inc", $esi:999999   ; ask for a Million bytes
  Print "OK"
  Exit
EndOfCode

During assembly, ## line 4: deb display limited to 62600 bytes (XP limit is 53200) ## will be shown, indicating that deb cut off at the amount of bytes that is safe for Win7.

P.S.: By default, $esi (without :bytes) would display 800 bytes.

The trick with StdOut is to stream it out, not dump it in one block. Feed it out at about 1k each block and it will stream forever without delays.
