There seem to be all manner of interesting things floating around in the
internaldict, such as the FlxProc array and the superexec operator.  But
does anyone know (or is anyone allowed to tell?) what operators such as
ErodeSW, CCRun, xlck, or ylck do?

I don't necessarily care whether they're actually *useful*; I'm just
curious about the innards of my LaserWriter....

I'm also assuming that the operators such as @repeat, @rfor, @loop, @ifor,
etc. have to do with low-level implementation of the interpreter.  Is this
even close to right?
