Hi,

In Ruby, String is mutable and there is the << operator to accumulate
a string at the end of another one.

I Julia, String is immutable and so, I use the contatenation operator
when I need to build a large string:

    txt = ""
    while ...
        txt *= "yet another line.\n"
    end
    # do something with txt

This is very slow because it build a new (more and more large) string at 
each
iteration.
Is there another way in Julia to efficiently build such a string?
Or is there another type one can use for that task (Buffer, Array, ....)?

Thanks in advance,
-- Maurice
