For a project use the description field to store the path of a tag.
Since this field is maximized to 255 characters, my question is whether there is a way to increase the number of characters.

I believe you would have to increase the value assigned to the MAXMSG constant in types.h and then re-build the toolkit. However the maximum path length on Windows is 256 characters (unless you change a registry setting), so maybe increasing MAXMSG isn't necessary. But on Linux it's 4095 characters.
