They can even be overwritten. <pre class="verbatim">args, return, temp, stdin, stderr, stdout, zero, true, false, none, @pi, @e, cwd, cpd, fnm </pre> <code>zero</code> is a fake writable file that does nothing. <code>none</code> is an abstract variable with an internal value of.. none. <code>@pi</code> is Pi. <code>@e</code> is Euler's number. <code>cwd</code> is the directory from which Enigma is run, <code>cpd</code> is the directory in which the current program file resides, and <code>fnm</code> is the filename of the current program file. The rest are self-explanatory — and <code>args</code>, <code>return</code> and <code>temp</code> are extra special. </body></html>
