8		The <b>BOOST_PP_LIST_APPEND</b> macro appends two <i>lists</i>.
9	</div>
10	<h4>Usage</h4>
11		<div class="code">
12			<b>BOOST_PP_LIST_APPEND</b>(<i>a</i>, <i>b</i>)
13		</div>
14	<h4>Arguments</h4>
15		<dl>
16			<dt>a</dt>
17			<dd>
18				The first <i>list</i>.
19			</dd>
20			<dt>b</dt>
21			<dd>
22				The second <i>list</i>.
23			</dd>
24		</dl>
25	<h4>Remarks</h4>
26		<div>
27			This macro appends two lists.&nbsp;
28			For example, if <i>a</i> is (<i>1</i>, (<i>2</i>, (<i>3</i>, <b>BOOST_PP_NIL</b>))) and <i>b</i> is (<i>4</i>, (<i>5</i>, <b>BOOST_PP_NIL</b>)),
29			this macro will expand to:
30			<div>
31				(<i>1</i>, (<i>2</i>, (<i>3</i>, (<i>4</i>, (<i>5</i>, <b>BOOST_PP_NIL</b>)))))
32			</div>
33		</div>
34		<div>
35			Previously, this macro could not be used inside <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b>.&nbsp;
36			There is no longer any such restriction.&nbsp;
37			It is more efficient, however, to use <b>BOOST_PP_LIST_APPEND_D</b> in such a situation.
