It doesn't have to be a single character, but it should be short (two is okay, three is the number thou shalt stop at, four thou shalt not count, and five is right out) and easily typed, since string concatenation is incredibly common. It should ideally evoke "concatenation", but that isn't strictly necessary (the link between "@" and "matrix multiplication" is tenuous at best).
Just curious, does double dot `..` (also used in Lua) meet those conditions?
I think so, but someone else may know of a way it'd be syntactically ambiguous or otherwise unsuitable. You'll do better to say that to the list. ChrisA
