.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
\fBlrepeat \fInumber element1 \fR?\fIelement2 element3 ...\fR?
|
|
.BE
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fBlrepeat\fR command creates a list of size \fInumber * number of
|
|
elements\fR by repeating \fInumber\fR times the sequence of elements
|
|
\fIelement1 element2 ...\fR. \fInumber\fR must be a positive integer,
|
|
\fIelementn\fR can be any Tcl value. Note that \fBlrepeat 1 arg ...\fR
|
|
is identical to \fBlist arg ...\fR, though the \fIarg\fR is required
|
|
with \fBlrepeat\fR.
|
|
