- lrange list first last
- List must be a valid Tcl list. This command will
- return a new list consisting of elements first through
- last, inclusive. 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]''
