Again (as with last night in IRC) you are treating a string as a list. But a string is a single thing; it doesn't make sense to list-append to it.

     $x ~= "def";

$ perl6 -e 'my $x="abc"; $x ~= "def"; say $x;'
abcdef


Perfect!  Thank you!

I am slowly getting away from my Modula 2 "Array of Characters" days.

Question:  Is thee a pretty way like the above to do a prepend?
