[Gvsig_english] Things on my wishlist::Field calculator::Functions for the ~

[Wolfgang Qual]

Dear gvSIG-developers,
if the field calculator should be included into a future version of gvSIG, 
some things for this extension would be great, like:
* string functions
   - possibility to connect strings, like the '||'-command in sql, or '+', 
'++' in ArcView 3.2
   - possibility to connect a number with a string, like 'Hauptstrasse' + ' 
'+'2' will result in 'Hauptstrasse 2'
*various calculation options
   - calculate min, max
   - calculate coordinates (x,y), length, area, perimeter for shapefiles. Is 
this already somehow present in the code of gvSIG?

(to be continued...)

BTW, it is great to see, how gvSIG is developing!
All the best,
Wolfgang
