Trying to get my head around dict, I came across this issue with dict.group that works fine with the [prepend] object but not with [zl.join]. Or is it that I misunderstand some concept here?

i guess it has something to do with one message formatted as a list, and the other as... ? but buggy it seems

Hey,
No idea why, but it works with an additional [dict] between the [dict.group] and the [zl.join]. There is no real reason it should work better that way though, since the output seems the same at first from the two objects, except it's given another dictionary name when it goes through the [dict]...

Thanks vichug for the feedback. So far I haven't had new insights myself.
