apply template inputlist

command or operation. Runs the "template," filling its slots with the members of "inputlist." The number of members in "inputlist" must be an acceptable number of slots for "template." It is illegal to apply the primitive to as a template, but anything else is okay. APPLY outputs what "template" outputs, if anything.

Examples: 

show apply [?+?] [1 3 5]		;2
show apply [?1+?2] [1 3 5]		;4
show apply "sum [1 2 3]		;6
show apply [[x] :x+3] [5]		;8
show apply [[x] [output :x+3]] [5]		;8
