Recently, a posting questioned the overloading of '+' for use as an
operator for forcing order of evaluation. Since the commercial '@' sign
is not otherwise used in C (because of it's former as a line kill char
in Version X Unix?), maybe it would be a better choice. Because this ability
is a new ability, maybe its inclusion warrants a new operator.
