String literal concatenation

[mcejp]

In Python, multiple adjacent string or bytes literals (delimited by whitespace), possibly using different quoting conventions, are allowed, and their meaning is the same as their concatenation (source).

I was wondering if an equivalent construct exists in Hy, or more generally, what would be the recommended way of splitting f-strings that are too long to fit on a single line.

Merci 😉

Since Hy has prefix operators, it's easiest to just explicitly concatenate your different strings. Indeed, the pprint function from Hyrule does exactly that:

=> (hyrule.pprint "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.")
(+ "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod "
   "tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.")

I always thought Python's implicit string-literal concatenation was a weird holdover from C. Dangerous, too: forget the comma in ["foo", "bar"] and you get something different with no warning.
