This function produces a string representation of a list resembling the syntax one might use to type it in:

Stack:
[ [ 'a' 'b' 'c' ]l [ "def" 12 ]l ]l printList
Stack: "[ [ 'a' 'b' 'c' ]l [ "def" 12 ]l ]l"

It is currently implemented as:

: printList { $ -> $ } -> list
    [   "[ "
        list listfor e do{
            e   e cons? if printList else toDelimitedString fi
            " "
        }
        "]l"
    | ]join
;
