Re: list-building performance

No, that doesn't do it (I want to append a list of lists to a list of lists)--that's basically the same thing I started with (and looks like I'll stick with). I can do it with the "&" operator (set my theList to my theList & {{...},{...}}), but that appears to negate the speed improvement that comes with using the list property. So I'll stick with the way I was doing it (setting the end of the list in two separate statements). It's extremely fast anyway, using the property (it still goes up exponentially, apparently, but it seems to be nearly 40 times faster, and I don't think I'll need to make lists that are long enough to be a problem). Thanks.

That is, is there a way to

{{<listA>}} & {{<listB>},{<listC>}}

 and get

{{<listA>},{<listB>},{<listC>}}

instead of {{<listA>},{{<listB>},{<listC>}}? 

Is that what you want?

set fred to {{"listB"}, {"listC"}}
set beginning of fred to {"listA"}
fred
--> {{"listA"}, {"listB"}, {"listC"}}
