Hi,

I have a question about passing down strings to functions of other
systems. For (a stupid) example, if I want to concatenate two strings
in GAP, I need to do:

    sage: gap.Concatenation("\"foo\"", "\"bar\"")
    foobar

Is there a reason that we can't just do the natural:

    sage: gap.Concatenation("foo", "bar")
    foobar

?

(raised by Jean Michel, while playing hard with the gap3 interface, in
a situation where he had to send the string "C'" to gap3)

Thanks!

Cheers,
                                Nicolas
