While the below looks good, doing the 2 list-to-string conversions make that approach much slower than repeat-and-append.

Hi Tim,
maybe this could fit....
----------------------------------------
list1 = [1,2,3,4]
list2 = [5,6,7,8]

s1 = string(list1)
s2 = string(list2)
---
res1 = s1.char[1..s1.length - 1]
res2 = s2.char[2..s2.length]

put value(res1 & "," & res2)
-- [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

 Hi Tim,

 it won't help you in this situation, but in DMX2004 for javascript there
 is the concat() function for arrays:

 var a = Array(1,2,3);
 var b = Array(4,5,6);
 trace(a.concat(b));
 // 1,2,3,4,5,6
