Thank you for this nice word varargifacation, though it might be a
sign of "convulated C thinking" :).
... your proposal even is quite helpful, but only quite, you would
have to use the following two lines:
io.write( str1.byte()), print (str2.byte())
... you are somehow right, this can be used as "work-around" somehow,
though a bit cumbersome for the Lua programmer... .
