I've got a few functions defined with 'const' string parameters. When

Because the scanner only handles shortstrings for speed reasons. You
can construct longer strings by concatenating multiple shorter strings
(they will be concatenated at compile time).
So
someproc('this string can be 255 characters' + 'and this one as well');
