Well, here's a start. Here are the ones I've found in the Exegeses and
Apocalypses. Things like 'is copy' and 'is given' (and probably a
great many others) have only been mentioned on the list, and I'm not
grepping through all the list mail. :)
A note: It is *impossible* to tell whether these are properties or
methods, built-ins or user-defined. This has never been stated
anywhere, with the exception of "constant" and "dim", which Damian
says (in E2) are built-in properties. Maybe those which are
capitalized are user-defined. Maybe that's not a good enough rule. We
Just Don't Know. Maybe an explicit rule would be nice.
And this may all have changed anyway. But here they are, followed by
which Apo/Exe they were mentioned in, and how many times, using the
troll's numbering system. (1, 2, many, lots)
bigint (A2: 1)
constant (A2: many, E2: many, E4: 2)
const (E3:2)
rw (A2: 2, A4: 1, E2: many, E4:1)
true (A2: 1, E4:1)
false (A2: 2)
dim (A2: many, E2: many)
shared (A2:1)
locked (A2:1)

Allison, any more to add?
