Maybe $content contains many lines and is removed, but it probably
also contains brace characters, and is not really a list.

OK, I grabbed tkdiff+.3.07g, and that line is part of status:save,
and $content is the contents of the rc file, likely .tkdiffrc or
_tkdiff.rc. Check that the file has not been clobbered.

Ummmm... does your rc file contain comments? Comments are allowed
for processing the file, but I don't see any method for handling
them when saving the status.
