NAME
       list - Create a list

SYNOPSIS
       list ?arg arg ...?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION
       This  command returns a list comprised of all the args, or
       an empty string if no  args  are	 specified.   Braces  and
       backslashes get added as necessary, so that the index com-
       mand may be used on the result to re-extract the	 original
       arguments,  and	also  so that eval may be used to execute
       the resulting list, with	 arg1  comprising  the	command's
       name  and  the  other args comprising its arguments.  List
       produces slightly different results than	 concat:   concat
       removes	one  level  of	grouping before forming the list,
       while list works directly  from	the  original  arguments.
       For example, the command
	      list a b {c d e} {f {g h}}
       will return
	      a b {c d e} {f {g h}}
       while concat with the same arguments will return
	      a b c d e f {g h}
