+A parameter is created for each var(name) that does not already refer

+var(name) (even those that already exist), and is unset again when the
+function completes.  See
+ifzman(`Local Parameters' in zmanref(zshparam))\
+ifnzman(noderef(Local Parameters))\
+.  Local parameters are not exported unless tt(ALL_EXPORT) is set, in
+which case the parameter is exported em(only) when var(name) does not
+already exist.  The same rules apply to special shell parameters, which
+retain their special attributes when made local.
+
+For each var(name)tt(=)var(value) assignment, the parameter
+var(name) set to var(value).  Note that arrays currently cannot be
+assigned in tt(typeset) expressions, only scalars and integers.
+
+For each remaining var(name) that refers to a parameter that is set, the
+name and value of the parameter are printed in the form of an assignment.
+Nothing is printed for newly-created parameters, or if any attribute flags
+listed below are given.  Using `tt(PLUS())' instead of minus to introduce
+an attribute turns it off.
+
+If the tt(-T) option is given, exactly two (or zero) var(name)
+arguments must be present.  They represent a scalar and an array (in
+that order) that will be tied together in the manner of tt($PATH) and
+tt($path).  In other words, an array present in the latter variable
+appears as a scalar with the elements of the array joined by colons in
+the former.  Only the scalar may have an initial value.  Both the
+scalar and the array may otherwise be manipulated as normal.  If one
+is unset, the other will automatically be unset too.  There is no way
+of untying the variables without unsetting them, or converting the
+type of one them with another tt(typeset) command; tt(+T) does not work,
+assigning an array to var(SCALAR) is an error, and assigning a scalar
+to var(array) sets it to be a single-element array.  Note that
+both tt(typeset -xT ...) and tt(export -T ...) work, but only the
+scalar will be marked for export.
+
+The flag tt(-g) (global) flag is treated specially: it means that any
+resulting parameter will not be restricted to local scope.  Note that this
+does not necessarily mean that the parameter will be global, as the flag
+will apply to any existing parameter (even if unset) from an enclosing
+function.  This flag does not affect the parameter after creation, hence it
+has no effect when listing existing parameters, nor does the flag tt(+g)
+have any effect.
+
+If no var(name) is present, the names and values of all parameters are
+printed.  In this case the attribute flags restrict the display to only
+those parameters that have the specified attributes, and using `tt(PLUS())'
+rather than `tt(-)' to introduce the flag suppresses printing of the values
+of parameters when there is no parameter name.  Also, if the option list
+ends with `tt(PLUS())', values will not be printed.  If only the tt(-m)
+flag is given the arguments are taken as patterns (which should be quoted)
+and all parameters (or functions with the tt(-f) flag) with matching names

+This builtin command can be used to compile functions or scripts and
+store the compiled form in a file, and to examine files containing
+the compiled form.  This allows faster autoloading of functions and
+execution of scripts by avoiding parsing of the text when the files
+are read.
+
+The first form (without the tt(-c), tt(-a) or tt(-t) options) creates a
+compiled file.  If only the var(file) argument is provided, the
+output file has the name `var(file)tt(.zwc)' and will be placed in
+the same directory as the var(file).  This will make the compiled
+file be loaded instead of the normal function file when the function
+is autoloaded (see
+ifzman(\
+the section `Autoloading Functions' in zmanref(zshfunc)
+)\
+ifnzman(\
+noderef(Functions)
+)\
+for a description of how autoloaded functions are searched).  The
+extension tt(.zwc) stands for `zsh word codes'.
+
+If there is at least one var(name) argument, all those named files
+are compiled into one output var(file).  If var(file) does not end
+in tt(.zwc), this extension is automatically appended.  Files
+containing multiple compiled functions are called `digest' files,
+and are intended to be used as elements of the tt(FPATH)/tt(fpath)
+special array.
+
+The second form, with the tt(-c) or tt(-a) options, writes the compiled
+definitions for all the named functions into var(file).  For tt(-c), the
+names must be functions currently defined in the shell, not those marked
+for autoloading.  Undefined functions that are marked for autoloading
+may be written by using the tt(-a) option, in which case the tt(fpath)
+is searched and the contents of the definition files for those
+functions, if found, are compiled into var(file).  If both tt(-c) and
+tt(-a) are given, names of both defined functions and functions marked
+for autoloading may be given.  In either case, the functions in files
+written with the tt(-c) or tt(-a) option will be autoloaded as if the
+tt(KSH_AUTOLOAD) option were unset.
+
+The reason for handling loaded and not-yet-loaded functions with
+different options is that some definition files for autoloading define
+multiple functions, including the function with the same name as the
+file, and, at the end, call that function.  In such cases the output of
+`tt(zcompile -c)' does not include the additional functions defined in
+the file, and any other initialization code in the file is lost.  Using
+`tt(zcompile -a)' captures all this extra information.
+
+If the tt(-m) option is combined with tt(-c) or tt(-a),
+the var(name)s are used as patterns and all functions whose names
+match one of these patterns will be written. If no var(name) is given,
+the definitions of all functions currently defined or marked as
+autoloaded will be written.
+
+The third form, with the tt(-t) option, examines an existing
+compiled file.  Without further arguments, the names of the original
+files compiled into it are listed.  The first line of output tells
+the version of the shell which compiled the file and how the file
+will be used (mapping or reading the file).  With arguments, nothing
+is output and the return value is set to zero if em(all) var(name)s
+name files contained in the wordcode file, and non-zero if at least
+one var(name) is not contained in it.
+
+Other options:
+
+startitem()
+item(tt(-U))(
+Aliases are not expanded when compiling the var(name)d files.
+)
+item(tt(-R))(
+When the compiled file is read, its contents are copied into the
+shell's memory, rather than memory-mapped (see tt(-M)).  This
+happens automatically on systems that do not support memory mapping.
+
+When compiling scripts instead of autoloadable functions, it is
+often desirable to use this option. Otherwise the whole file will
+remain mapped if the script has defined one or more functions, even
+if the rest of the file will not be used again.
+)
+item(tt(-M))(
+The compiled file is mapped into the shell's memory when read. This
+is done in such a way that multiple instances of the shell running
+on the same host will share this mapped file.  If neither tt(-R) nor
+tt(-M) is given, the tt(zcompile) builtin decides what to do based
+on the size of the compiled file.
+)
+xitem(tt(-k))
+item(tt(-z))(
+These options are used when the compiled file contains functions and
+those functions are to be autoloaded. If tt(-z) is given, the
+function will be autoloaded as if the tt(KSH_AUTOLOAD) option is
+em(not) set, even if it is set at the time the compiled file is
+read. The tt(-k) makes the function be loaded as if tt(KSH_AUTOLOAD)
+em(is) set.  If neither of these options is given, the function will
+be loaded as determined by the setting of the tt(KSH_AUTOLOAD) option
+at the time the compiled file is read.
+
+These options may also be repeated among the listed var(name)s to
+specify the loading style of all following functions, up to the next
+tt(-k) or tt(-z).
+)
+enditem()
+
+The created file always contains two versions of the compiled
+format, one for big-endian machines and one for small-endian
+machines. The upshot of this is that the compiled file is machine
+independent and if it is read or mapped, only one half of the file
+is actually used (and mapped).
