a @ b !
This would be the equivalent of a=b in C.
a @ gets the value of a and puts it on the stack, and b ! takes the topmost
stack element and stores it in b.
I don't know if this will work in OF though, it seems they've taken a few
liberties with the language (for instance you say "setenv auto-boot? false"
instead of something like "false setenv auto-boot?" or "false auto-boot? setenv")
