1. RE: Looking for the best "JOIN"
Have I missed something?
Surely this is built in to Euphoria as a fundamental?
sequence x
x = "abc"&"def"&"ghijk"
... and d then = "abcdefghijk"
I just tried it and it does ... so?

Sorry, did I fail to be obvious? What about:
function Join(squence strings)

3. RE: Looking for the best "JOIN"
Whoops!
I was trying to say, try this:
function join (sequence strings)
sequence result
result = ""
for i=1 to length(strings)
result = result & strings[i]
end for
return result
end function
I just wrote exactly that and it seems perfectly satisfactory.
So what have I missed that's so obvious to y'all out there?
