Where can I look for them? I'm not (yet) a DSSSL hacker, but I'm
studying it a little. The problem is that I couldn't find a list of
valid DSSSL "commands". It's something like using only what I've seen
around and doing nothing more than what was already done. :-(

I thought about that. :-) That was what I was doing (if it wasn't the
correct way, it would be easier to change it to something else).
