String Concatenation

[Robert Lee <Ro...@rcn.com>]

Is there a simple way in Velocity to concatenate strings, the equivalent of
"+" in Java.
i.e.
#set($title = $this + $that + "some more")

In case you are wondering, the ${that} is a 'formal reference' - it's
equivalent to $that, but the curlies make it easier for the parser to know
you mean 

$that + some  

Versus

$thatsome

Where it would try to find 'thatsome' in the context.

You're going to end up getting pissed at your software
anyway, so you might as well not pay for it. Try Open Source.
