List displays

A list display is a possibly empty series of conditions enclosed in square brackets:


list_display:   "[" [condition_list] "]"

A list display yields a new list object.

If it has no condition list, the list object has no items. Otherwise, the elements of the condition list are evaluated from left to right and inserted in the list object in that order.
