WRITE #hfile, s, 14 never wrote the string length first, neither in 
Gambas 2 or Gambas 3.

If you specify the length, only the string contents is written. No 
length first.

The change between Gambas 2 and Gambas 3 is that now, a specific syntax 
is used to write the binary representation of a data:

WRITE #hFile, expr AS type

So now, `WRITE #hFile, expr` will always write the contents of `expr` 
converted to a string.

The Gambas 2 syntax was badly ambiguous, hence the new syntax.
