NAME
lappend - Append list elements onto a variable
SYNOPSIS
lappend varName ?value value value ...?
DESCRIPTION
This command treats the variable given by varName as a list and appends
each of the value arguments to that list as a separate element, with
spaces between elements. If varName doesn't exist, it is created as a
list with elements given by the value arguments. Lappend is similar to
append except that the values are appended as list elements rather than
raw text. This command provides a relatively efficient way to build up
large lists. For example, "lappend a $b" is much more efficient than
"set a [concat $a [list $b]]" when $a is long.
EXAMPLE
% set x {ABC DEF {GHI JKL} MNO}
ABC DEF {GHI JKL} MNO
% lappend x PQR STU {VWX YZ}
ABC DEF {GHI JKL} MNO PQR STU {VWX YZ}
