I'm just new tot Euphoria and a bit confused. Shouldn't it be:

st = "Hello " "How Are you" --(A space after Hello)

Suggestion again for next releases:

Make  st = "Hello" "How Are you"
valid and the result is same as
st = "Hello" & "How Are you"

What is the benefit:
If we use & operator we are concenating string which will take long
time. But the "st1" "st2" just the same as "st1st2". It is related to
ex/w interpreter line length limit so we can write (taken from EWI):


AUTOEXEC_ALTERATION =
    "The files necessary for the Euphoria programming language, and the
requested libraries, have now "
    "been installed on your computer.  In order to work properly, however,
Euphoria needs to make a "
    "couple of minor alterations made to your autoexec.bat file.  These
alterations include setting an "
    "environment variable and adding the location of Euphoria's interpreter
to your path."


without taking time concenating the strings.
