Hello!

Is this going to concat $a,$b and $c?

        $foo = _($a,$b,$c);

(One way to save underlines and spaces.)
Or would that be:

        $foo = _@($a,$b,$c);

BTW: what will these do?

        $a _=_ ($b,$c);

        $a ^_= ($b,$c);  # (better with hypo-operator?, see below)

(WIM in Perl 5: $a .= $b.$c ?)

Could there also be *hypo*-operators, i.e. operators which try to
*lower* (reduce) the dimensionality of their operands to the lowest
common dim. So

        $foo = 5 +^ (1,2);

would set $foo to (5 + 1) + 2 and

        $foo = $a _^ ($b,$c);
        $a _=^ ($b,$c);

would do the same concats as above respectively?
Another application:

        $sum = 0 +^ @values;

Granted: ^ is not the best choice for a meta-operator which lowers
something. :)
