/* {Operator classes}
 *
 * Instances of operator classes can work as operators, i. e., they
 * can be applied to arguments just as if they were ordinary
 * procedures.
 *
 * For instances of operator classes, the procedures to be applied are
 * stored in four dedicated slots in the associated class object.
 * Which one is selected depends on the number of arguments in the
 * application.
 *
 * If zero arguments are passed, the first will be selected.
 * If one argument is passed, the second will be selected.
 * If two arguments are passed, the third will be selected.
 * If three or more arguments are passed, the fourth will be selected.
 *
 * This is complicated and may seem gratuitous but has to do with the
 * architecture of the evaluator.  Using only one procedure would
 * result in a great deal less efficient application, loss of
 * tail-recursion and would be difficult to reconcile with the
 * debugging evaluator.
 *
 * Also, using this "forked" application in low-level code has the
 * advantage of speeding up some code.  An example is method dispatch
 * for generic operators applied to few arguments.  On the user level,
 * the "forked" application will be hidden by mechanisms in the GOOPS
 * package.
 *
 * Operator classes have the metaclass <operator-metaclass>.
 *
 * An example of an operator class is the class <tk-command>.
