 Fortunately, we expect that most expressions will be much simpler, with
 little Perl knowledge needed.
 Basically, you always start with a function that "generates" an image
 horizontal and vertical dimensions. For example, this halves the image
 width and doubles the image height:
    scale 0.5, 2, load "$HOME/mypic.png"

+image can be quite time consuming. This is where C<keep> comes in handy:
    scale 0.5, 2, keep { load "$HOME/mypic.png" }
 The C<keep> operator executes all the statements inside the braces only
 once, or when it thinks the outcome might change. In other cases it
 When such an event happens, C<keep> will automatically trigger a
 reevaluation of the whole expression with the new value of the expression.
 C<keep> is most useful for expensive operations, such as C<blur>:
-   rootalign once { blur 20, root }
+   rootalign keep { blur 20, root }
 This makes a blurred copy of the root background once, and on subsequent
 calls, just root-aligns it. Since C<blur> is usually quite slow and
 C<rootalign> is quite fast, this trades extra memory (for the cached
 blurred pixmap) with speed (blur only needs to be redone when root
 Load uncached - same as load, but does not cache the image, which means it
 is I<always> loaded from the filesystem again.

 The following operators change the pixels of the image.

 statements enclosed by braces.

 This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block,
 in case the root background changes: If expression inside the block
 is sensitive to some event (root background changes, window geometry
 changes), then it will be reevaluated automatically as needed.
