prevent list evaluation

[ji3m]

Is there any way to prevent a list from being evaluated when copied.?

e.g. fun1() and fun2() are compiled pgms.

then

a := { QUOTE (fun1),QUOTE (fun2) };

results in

a:= {fun1,fun2} unevaluated.

good so far. I use a as a function vector table.

But then

b := a; evaluates fun1 and fun2

I guess what i want is

b := rcl (a) or something that just retrieves the value of a.

I would like to prevent such evaluation while mechanically
manipulating such lists.
