[Newbies] Using text morph to save characters

[michael rice]

SorryI wasn't more explicit.

I'm generating a(s) and b(s). If I initially generate two a(s) in a row, and then a b, the b gets put between the two a(s), not at either end of the string. Likewise, if I initially generate two b(s) in a row, and then an a, the a gets inserted between the two b(s), not at either end of the string, as would be expected.

What exactly is "not working"?
