Faster/better way converting from list to string?

[newdep]

Hello All,

What is the "best" way to convert a list into a string, silly question perhpas
but as it is not a standard function in lisp i can only emagine i.e. as a way
to do it: -->

(join xxx "") ; where xxx is the list and a string is returned.

Any quicker of better way is welcome ;-)

Regards,
Norman.

(set 'lst '(a b c d e f))

(join (map string lst)) => "abcdef"

;;; or

(string lst) =>"(a b c d e f)"
