[MOO-Cows] Operators: concatenate, append, augment

[Daniel Jung]

Hi
=======================================
Operators: concatenate, append, augment
=======================================
In MOO code, I have to
   string = tostr(string, otherstring);
   list = setadd(list, element);
   number = number + othernumber;
   number = number + 1;
I'm tired of that. I'd wish I rather could
   string .= otherstring;
   list .= element;
   number += othernumber;
   number++;
or something like that. We already have a couple of shortcut operators, 
e.g. conditional and error. We should have a shortcut for the examples 
above as well (extremely often used).

That would mean changing the files `unparse.c' and `code_gen.c'. Question: 
Has anyone bothered to change the operators in MOO code yet, or found any 
strings attached? (no pun intented.)
