together – merges lists into synchronized list¶
Synopsis¶
- Creates a list with the iterated elements of the supplied lists
- To clarify with an example, [ ‘a’, ‘b’ ] and [ 1, 2 ] turn into [ (‘a’,1), (‘b’, 2) ]
- This is basically the same as the ‘zip_longest’ filter and Python function
- Any ‘unbalanced’ elements will be substituted with ‘None’

Configuration entries for each entry type have a low to high priority order. For example, a variable that is lower in the list will override a variable that is higher up.
