Re: confused about lists and strings...

 Thanks, I hadn't realised that using `args` would give me a list in a list.
I now just pass the list as-is (and called `rest` to avoid confusion!).

Actually this is very similar in Python:
def fun1(*args):
   # now you have all arguments in the list args
   pass
fun1(1,2,3)
and the inverse:
def fun2(a,b,c):
    pass
list=[1, 2, 3]
fun2(*list)
That'd be in Tcl
proc fun1 {args} {
}
fun1 1 2 3
proc fun2 {a b c} { }
set list "1 2 3"
fun2 {*}$list
