NAME

       concat - Join lists together

SYNOPSIS

       concat ?arg arg ...?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This  command joins each of its arguments together with spaces after trimming leading and trailing white-
       space from each of them.  If all the arguments are lists, this has the same effect as concatenating  them
       into  a single list.  It permits any number of arguments; if no args are supplied, the result is an empty
       string.

EXAMPLES

       Although concat will concatenate lists (so the command:
              concat a b {c d e} {f {g h}}
       will return "a b c d e f {g h}" as its result), it will also concatenate things that are not  lists,  and
       hence the command:
              concat " a b {c   " d "  e} f"
       will return "a b {c d e} f" as its result.

       Note that the concatenation does not remove spaces from the middle of its arguments, so the command:
              concat "a   b   c" { d e f }
       will return "a   b   c d e f" (i.e. with three spaces between the a, the b and the c).
