Summary

0001607: LIST.xxx.SET

Description

In the recent nightly (automated nightly build) I have noticed there was a basic LIST support. Nice work, List is one of the few things I had really missed in Sphere :)

But, the use of these lists is limited because (as far as I tested) there is no easy way of setting all list values at once. Storing the whole list as a single string works fine with <LIST.xxx>, but treating such string as a list again can not be done without parsing it manually and setting the single values to a list with LIST.xxx.ADD.

Would it be possible to add something like LIST.xxx.SET method, accepting list-formatted strings (e.g. {"a","b","c"})? Or maybe to alter the behavior of LIST.xxx, recognizing whether the argument is a single value or a list-formatted string?

With such method, it would be possible:
1) to work with lists in a more object-oriented way :)
2) to create multidimensional lists easily

Thank you for considering my request.

Additional Information

I would like to add some questions about functionality of lists I miss in the changelog:
- how many elements can a list store?
- how many characters at maximum can a string element have?
