Also try
put the number of items in "a,b,c" \
&& the number of items in "a,b," \
&& the number of items in "a,b"

Hmmm ... what should I get from
put "a,b,c" into temp
delete item -1 of temp
I think temp should now have "a,b," - i.e. the last item has
disappeared, but the (now) trailing item delimiter should still be
there.
However, I actually get that temp has "a,b" - the last comma has also
disappeared.
That's correct. Removing the last chunk of any string also removes
the delimiter. There have been many debates on whether this is
correct or not, but it's been that way in every xtalk since the
beginning.
