The biggie: changed the funcdesc environments used for opcode descriptions
...
to use the opcodedesc environment.
Changed a \code{} to a \file{} near the start where a file is referenced.
Fixed a typo: "on" --> "one" in ROT_THREE description.
Wherever opcodes were referenced by name, use \code{OPCODE_NAME}; usage was
inconsistent. Ideally, another macro would be defined since these don't
represent code a programmer would type, but that's minor even for me. It'll
probably get converted automatically in the SGML conversion project. Whether
that matters or not isn't relevant at this point.

Added environment for defining PyVM instructions. This is only used in
...
the libdis.tex file I'm about to check in.
I'm not sure this is really an optimal solution yet, but it may be the best
alternative. It avoids describing the instructions as either data items or
functions.
This change was discussed with Guido. (Guido: Take a look at the LaTeX
output for this; if this is reasonable I'll go ahead and update the perl
code in myformat.perl to match.)

Slip of the keyboard (f__ should be __). Dunno why I had a totally

messed up (but not checked in) version in my work files and didn't
