 +======Synopsis:======
 +[[local]] <variable name>  \\
 +[[local]] <variable name>,<variable name> \\
 +[[local]] <variable name> <value> \\
 +[[local]] -<variable name>  \\
 +[[local]] <structure>. \\
 +[[local]] -dump
 +
 +======Description:======
 +The [[local]] command creates local variables (as opposed to global variables).
 +A local variable can be used until the end of the //current atomic scope//.
 +
 +|<varname>|Create a local variable, initial value is the empty string.|
 +|<varname1,varname2>|Declare multiple variables to be local variables|
 +|<varname> <value>|Declare a local variable and give it an initial value|
 +|-<varname>|Delete a local variable|
 +|<structure>.|Declare all variables of the form <structure>.<var> to be local|
 +|-dump|Remove all local variables in the current atomic scope|
 +
 +Local variables are created implicitly by several commands which I should
 +be listing here.
 +
 +======Examples:======
 +To give the local variable $blah a value of "this is a test":
 +      local blah this is a test
 +
 +To give both $blah and $foo a value:
 +      local blah,foo local vars are neat
 +
 +======History:======
 +The [[local]] command first appeared in EPIC4pre0.009.
