Let's see a little code in action.
LIST
5 PRINTFRE(0)
10 A$="X"
15 PRINTFRE(0)
20 PRINT"7777777777777777777777777777777
77777777777777777777777777777777"
25 PRINTFRE(0)
READY.
RUN
60557
60547
7777777777777777777777777777777777777777
77777777777777777777777
60547
READY.
It seems to me that even though the string really gets copied into the work area at the end of the available RAM, it doesn't really waste memory. If I were you I'd shrug and go on with my stuff. There should be no problem until you fill memory up to the brim.
