NAME

       linsert - Insert elements into a list

SYNOPSIS

       linsert list index element ?element element ...?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  produces  a  new  list from list by inserting all of the element arguments just before the
       index'th element of list.  Each element argument will become a separate element  of  the  new  list.   If
       index is less than or equal to zero, then the new elements are inserted at the beginning of the list.  If
       index  has  the  value end, or if it is greater than or equal to the number of elements in the list, then
       the new elements are appended to the list.  end-integer refers to the last element in the list minus  the
       specified integer offset.

EXAMPLE

       Putting  some  values into a list, first indexing from the start and then indexing from the end, and then
       chaining them together:
              set oldList {the fox jumps over the dog}
              set midList [linsert $oldList 1 quick]
              set newList [linsert $midList end-1 lazy]
              # The old lists still exist though...
              set newerList [linsert [linsert $oldList end-1 quick] 1 lazy]
