Re: [Modules] A whitespace-separated version of append-path/prepend-path?

[R.K. O. <rk...@ow...>]

The later versions of modules (~ 3.2.6)
       append-path [ -d C | --delim C | --delim=C ] variable value
       prepend-path [ -d C | --delim C | --delim=C ] variable value
              Append  or  prepend value to environment variable.  The variable
              is a colon, or delimiter, separated list such as
              "PATH=directory:directory:directory".  The default delimiter  is
              a  colon  ':',  but an arbitrary one can be given by the --delim
              option.  For example a space can be  used  instead  (which  will
              need  to  be handled in the Tcl specially by enclosing it in " "
              or { }).   A  space,  however,  can  not  be  specified  by  the
              --delim=C form.
