- list arg ?arg ...?

- DESCRIPTION
- This command returns a list comprised of all the args.
- Braces and backslashes get added as necessary, so that the
- index command 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: con-
- cat 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}
