Hi Adam,

thanks for you reply but maybe i wasn't clear enough
There's no trouble for me creating any list.
The problem is that i need the contents of the list in another application.
example: now i have:
(setf *option-list* (1,1 2,2 3,3 4,4 ....)
COMMAND (OPTION *option-list*)
but i have to get rid of the hooks and make the result like 
COMMAND (OPTION 1,1 1,2 1,3 1,4 .....) and not like 
COMMAND (OPTION (1,1 1,2 1,3 1,4 .....))

Thanks again

What Lisp is this? It doesn't look like Common Lisp...

So what type of Lisp doesn't use QUOTE (') nor brackets to denote
nested lists?

In Common Lisp one uses APPEND:
(append '(OPTION) '("1,1" "1,2" "1,3" "1,4"))
(OPTION "1,1" "1,2" "1,3" "1,4")
