those were previously part of TclX and can be easily emulated in Tcl script.
this is what VMD uses in one of its startup scripts.
# TclX commands we still use in VMD
proc lassign { listvar args } {
set i 0
foreach var $args {
upvar $var x
set x [lindex $listvar $i]
incr i
}
return [lrange $listvar $i end]
}
proc lvarpush { listvar var } {
upvar $listvar x
set x [list $var $x]
}
proc lvarpop { var } {
upvar $var x
set retval [lindex $x 0]
set x [lrange $x 1 end]
return $retval
}
