Does Tkinter provide any way of properly converting a Python list to a
Tcl list?
Specifically, I am trying to insert text into a Text widget with
multiple tags, which is supposedly allowed by passing a list of tag
names. However, passing a Python list doesn't work - as far as I can
tell, the list just gets converted with str() and then split on
whitespace! The results (as verified with .tag_names()) is a mishmash
of word fragments, including commas, quote marks, and brackets that
could have only come from the stringification of the list: no such
characters were actually part of the tags in the list.
