/* the "list" object family.

    list append - append a list to another
    list prepend - prepend a list to another
    list split - first n elements to first outlet, rest to second outlet
    list trim - trim off "list" selector
    list length - output number of items in list
    list fromsymbol - "explode" a symbol into a list of character codes

Need to think more about:
    list foreach - spit out elements of a list one by one (also in reverse?)
    list reverse - permute elements of a list back to front
    list cat - build a list by accumulating elements

Probably don't need:
    list first - output first n elements.
    list last - output last n elements
    list nth - nth item in list, counting from zero
    list array - get items from a named array as a list
    list pack - synonym for 'pack'
    list unpack - synonym for 'unpack'
