Hi all !!

I am working on file and string searching. while executing my code , i
am getting this strange error msg. i tried everything but cudnt crack
what tclsh is trying to tell me ...

here is the complete error msg:

list element in quotes followed by "." instead of space
while executing
"foreach Str $TestStr {

"List element in quotes followed by <some character>" means the variable doesn't contain a valid list (by virtue of it having a non-whitespace character immediately after a quoting character).

My guess is, you're taking a random string from a file or from user input and are trying to use it as a Tcl list, which you should not be doing.
