Well here's my latest, and likely last, effort.
If anyone on the list can do it more simply I would be
most interested.
%!
% Jim Easton's strcat or append
(abcdef)(xyz) % assume this's what we're given
exch dup length % (xyz) (abcdef) 6
2 index length % (xyz) (abcdef) 6 3
add string dup dup % (xyz) (abcdef) (.........) (.........) (.........)
5 2 roll copy % (abcdef...) (abcdef...) (xyz) (abcdef)
length exch % (abcdef...) (abcdef...) 6 (xyz)
putinterval % (abcdefxyz)
Jim
