+.SH NAME
+lreplace \- Replace elements in a list with new elements
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBlreplace \fIlist first last \fR?\fIelement element ...\fR?
+.BE
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+\fBlreplace\fR returns a new list formed by replacing one or more elements of
+\fIlist\fR with the \fIelement\fR arguments.
+\fIfirst\fR and \fIlast\fR are index values specifying the first and
+last elements of the range to replace.
+The index values \fIfirst\fR and \fIlast\fR are interpreted
+the same as index values for the command \fBstring index\fR,
+supporting simple index arithmetic and indices relative to the
+end of the list.
+0 refers to the first element of the
+list, and \fBend\fR refers to the last element of the list.
+If \fIlist\fR is empty, then \fIfirst\fR and \fIlast\fR are ignored.
+.PP
+If \fIfirst\fR is less than zero, it is considered to refer to before the
+first element of the list.  For non-empty lists, the element indicated
+by \fIfirst\fR must exist or \fIfirst\fR must indicate before the
+start of the list.
+.PP
+If \fIlast\fR is less than \fIfirst\fR, then any specified elements
+will be inserted into the list before the point specified by \fIfirst\fR
+with no elements being deleted.
+.PP
+The \fIelement\fR arguments specify zero or more new arguments to
+be added to the list in place of those that were deleted.
+Each \fIelement\fR argument will become a separate element of
+the list.  If no \fIelement\fR arguments are specified, then the elements
+between \fIfirst\fR and \fIlast\fR are simply deleted.  If \fIlist\fR
+is empty, any \fIelement\fR arguments are added to the end of the list.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.PP
+Replacing an element of a list with another:
+.PP
+.CS
+% \fBlreplace\fR {a b c d e} 1 1 foo
+a foo c d e
+.CE
+.PP
+Replacing two elements of a list with three:
+.PP
+.CS
+% \fBlreplace\fR {a b c d e} 1 2 three more elements
+a three more elements d e
+.CE
+.PP
+Deleting the last element from a list in a variable:
+.PP
+.CS
+% set var {a b c d e}
+a b c d e
+% set var [\fBlreplace\fR $var end end]
+a b c d
+.CE
+.PP
+A procedure to delete a given element from a list:
+.PP
+.CS
+proc lremove {listVariable value} {
+    upvar 1 $listVariable var
+    set idx [lsearch -exact $var $value]
+    set var [\fBlreplace\fR $var $idx $idx]
+}
