2) Where and when is . needed as a concatenation operator?
In an expression. Not in the operands of :echo and friends if you want
successive expressions to be separated by a single space. IOW,
:echo 'foo' 'bar' 'baz'
or
:echo 'foo' . ' ' . 'bar' . ' ' . 'baz'
or
:echo 'foo bar baz'
all display the same text.
[...]
P.S. By ":echo and friends" I meant the following commands:
:ec[ho]
:echoe[rr]
:echom[sg]
:echon
:exe[cute]
Best regards,
Tony.

If a man would not labour in the salt and rock quarries then he should
not accept of the Earth that which he refuses to give of himself.
Such a man would expect a pear of a peach tree.
Such a man would expect a stone to lay an egg.
Such a man would expect Sears to assemble a lawnmower.
