lrange(3Tcl)

NAME
     lrange - Return one or more adjacent elements from a list

SYNOPSIS
     lrange list first last


DESCRIPTION
     List must be a valid Tcl list.  This command will return a new list
     consisting of elements first through last, inclusive.  First or last may |
     be end (or any abbreviation of it) to refer to the last element of the
     list.  If first is less than zero, it is treated as if it were zero.  If
     last is greater than or equal to the number of elements in the list, then
     it is treated as if it were end.  If first is greater than last then an
     empty string is returned.  Note: ``lrange list first first'' does not
     always produce the same result as ``lindex list first'' (although it
     often does for simple fields that aren't enclosed in braces); it does,
     however, produce exactly the same results as ``list [lindex list first]''
