Function: list llListInsertList( list dest, list src, integer start );

Returns a list that is src inserted into dest at position start.

Index	Positive	Negative
First	`0`	`-length`
Last	`length - 1`	`-1`

Positive indexes count from the beginning, the first item being indexed as 0, the last as (length - 1).

Negative indexes count from the far end, the first item being indexed as -length, the last as -1.

If start is out of bounds the script continues to execute without an error message.
If start is past the end of src, then dest is appended to th end of src, it will not add null entries. To avoid this, create empty elements in the list first. A similar outcome occurs when using negative indexes.
