Oh, I didn't answer this first question.

Were you hoping that the expression "abc"*2 would result in "abcabc"?

That sounds like it might be an interesting extension of the  
language, but it won't work.

In Revolution "10" and 10 are the same.  So, should "10"*2 be "1010"  
or "20"?  For Revolution it is the latter.
