-.SH NAME
-list \- Create a list
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-\fBlist \fR?\fIarg arg ...\fR?
-.BE
-
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.PP
-This command returns a list comprised of all the \fIarg\fRs,
-or an empty string if no \fIarg\fRs are specified.
-Braces and backslashes get added as necessary, so that the \fBindex\fR command
-may be used on the result to re-extract the original arguments, and also
-so that \fBeval\fR may be used to execute the resulting list, with
-\fIarg1\fR comprising the command's name and the other \fIarg\fRs comprising
-its arguments. \fBList\fR produces slightly different results than
-\fBconcat\fR: \fBconcat\fR removes one level of grouping before forming
-the list, while \fBlist\fR works directly from the original arguments.
-For example, the command
-.CS
-\fBlist a b {c d e} {f {g h}}\fR
-.CE
-will return
-.CS
-\fBa b {c d e} {f {g h}}\fR
-.CE
-while \fBconcat\fR with the same arguments will return
-.CS
-\fBa b c d e f {g h}\fR
-.CE

-.SH KEYWORDS
-element, list
