Look at the help for the backquote function.
Basically, it's a macro which lets you have a quoted expression, but
it lets you selectively insert non-quoted values/results as well. It
also has the handy ,@ splice operator which inserts the contents of an
array as individual items.
(let ((foo '(a b c d e))
(one 1)
(two 2)
(three 3))
`(,one ,two ,three four five ,@foo))
=> (1 2 3 four five a b c d e)
Get it?
