Pict combiners in list form?

[Hendrik Boom]

Is there a way to call the pict combiners (such as ht-append) giving it a
list of argument picts instead of a varying number of argument picts?

Perhaps another set of append functions, or another way of calling functions
in Racket? I find myself writing list-folowing recursions every time I want
this.

Hi Hendrik,

I use apply for that.  Eg (apply hbl-append (pict-width (t " ")) my-list-of-picts).

Although this is a bit tedious and I write that too much too ... maybe they should call "flatten" on their arguments or just accept a list of picts?

Or as a simple hack you can redefine `apply' as a one letter binding like `~'.
