Not true..

Try to use the sub (hmm, substring, can't remember it's function now) to
print the string. even if a concat loop works, the print doesn't..

#declare S = "."
#declare N = 100000;
#declare M = 0;
#while(M<N)
  #declare S = concat(S,".")
  #declare M = M +1;
#end

#declare M = 0;
#while(M<N)
  #debug concat("\r",substr(S,0,M))
  #declare M = M +1;
#end


this should show it....
