Derek Baum resolved FELIX-1473.
-------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

typing a period(.) after a command, forces reflective method invocation on 
String, rather than trying to invoke a command.

This allows the use of all the methods on String, for example:

x = (method args..)

if { $x . startsWith /} {...}

> [gogo] The syntax does not provide a way to call methods on a string

> When the first argument is a string, gogo considers it to be a command.
> The problem is that it leads to unpredictible behavior when using variables
> > $a length
> Depending on the type of $a, it will either try to call a command named by 
> the value of $a, or call the length method on the $a object.
