I agree, that's why I just said "the effect of" for the usage asked about.
I comfortable with the man page explanation that was already posted, and
then the concat command man page an example. It's enough reality for me!
Eval takes one or more arguments, which together comprise
a Tcl script containing one or more commands. Eval con-
catenates all its arguments in the same fashion as the
concat command, passes the concatenated string to the Tcl
interpreter recursively, and returns the result of that
evaluation (or any error generated by it).
>From the concat man page:
For example, the command
concat a b {c d e} {f {g h}}
will return
a b c d e f {g h}
as its result.
