It's a lot easier if you use the SQL-standard concatenation operator:
regression=# select 'foo' || 'bar';?column?
----------foobar
(1 row)
textcat() just exists to implement the operator, which is why it's
not documented separately.
Dunno why you'd need to specify the type of the constant explicitly
in this context --- there is only one textcat function, so the system
ought to be able to figure it out.
