I had never noticed merge before - thanks !
(Though on first glance it looks totally non-intuitive to me :-) ]

What I'd do is probably
   put quote & "%s" & quote  into gWote    -- somewhere like an 
openstack handler
and then use it as
  put format(gWote, "asdf") into tVar

Notes:
1. gWote is of course a global
2. It helps to pronounce this in a Scottish Gaelic accent, where a "g" 
sound is half between English "g" and "k"  :-)
