Compare items in 2 separate lists

Is there an easy way to compare two separate lists and return a list of matching items (items that appear in both lists)?

You can use the function intersection for this.

for example:

STRING LIST TP_Bound_Names = intersection(ToolpathTools,BoundaryTools)

Neat, that's exactly what I was looking for, thank you.
