  I still think #debug (and other streams) should be more user-friendly,
as printing functions in other scripting languages, so that you could
write something like:

#declare F1 = 5;
#declare F2 = 3.86;
#declare V = <1,2.8,-3>;
#declare S = "Hello!"

#debug "Some values: ", F1, "; ", F2, "; ", V, "; ", S, "\n"


  This would print:

5; 3.86; <1,2.8,-3>; Hello!

  With the current implementation you have to do this:

#debug concat("Some values: ", str(F1,0,0), "; ", str(F2,0,2), "; <",
              str(V.x,0,0), ",", str(V.y,0,1), ",", str(V.z,0,0), ">; ",
              S, "\n")
