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,  flattening  them  in  the  process  (so  giving  the  following
       interactive session):

              % concat a b {c d e} {f {g h}}
              a b c d e f {g h}

       it will also concatenate things that are not lists, as can be seen from this session:

              % concat " a b {c   " d "  e} f"
              a b {c d e} f

       Note also that the concatenation does not remove spaces from the middle of values, as can be seen here:

              % concat "a   b   c" { d e f }
              a   b   c d e f

       (i.e., there are three spaces between each of the a, the b and the c).
