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]
