GridFlow is meant to be used within PureData. PureData provides [select] 
[route] [moses] [spigot] and such. GridFlow adds [shunt], which is already 
called by other names ([gate] and [demux]) by other extensions to 
PureData, and also adds [range].

PureData has [until] and has clock-driven [metro]. PureData also supports 
recursion to some extent. GridFlow extends this with [for] and [foreach] 
but also (and most importantly) uses multi-dimensional arrays as driving 
implicit multiple nested for-loops, as in the APL language, and this is 
what makes GridFlow programs so concise.
