In xlisp I can combine single character strings in the following
manner:

	(strcat "a" "b" "c")

to get "abc"

Is there a like function in Sun Common Lisp?

Thanks,

Tom

The more general function #'concatenate will work:

> (concatenate 'string "a" "b" "c")
"abc"

Hi, I wrote you yesterday with the wrong definition of strcat. It should be:

(defun strcat (&rest strings)
  (apply 'concatenate 'string strings))
