Hallo, João Miguel Pais hat gesagt: // João Miguel Pais wrote:

oh, I guess I was missing something all these years
You were probably already using it with [line~] and [vline~] etc.
Once you realize it, you may find it very useful in other places as well. For example it's very handy to add a list of two numbers without unpacking:
[1 2( | [+ ] | 3
or to swap numbers:
[1 2[ | [swap] | 2 1
or to multiply many numbers with [list-reduce]:
[1 2 3 4 5 6 7( | [list-reduce]X[* ] | 5040
or use it with [expr]:
[1 2 3 4( | [expr $f1/$f2 + $f3/$f4] | 1.25
