Packed Strings - Nekom - 10.03.2010

I know that I can create packed strings doing for example:

Код:

new 
   string[12 char] = !"Hello";

That becomes

Код:

new 
   string[3] = !"Hello";

But I have some questions...

Can I put ! before "text" in format?
For example:

Код:

new string[24 char];
format(string, sizeof(string), !"Hello by %s", "Peppe");

and...

What are the advantages and disvantages of packed strings?

There was a topic by ****** about this (I think it was about not using 256 strings), but it had a little section about Packed Strings as well.

I read the ******'s topic about these, but I didn't understand if I can easily edit my code using packed strings and if functions like strcmp, strmid and others work well whit these
