Some standard D20 terms I'm looking for ''Virtual'' equivalents for at the moment are:
 +
* Magic (in the sense of the single generic term for rewrites and rewriting).
 +
* Poisonous (as in something that is naturally dangerous to programs; term needs to relate back to the ''Virtual'' term for poison, "codeeater")
 +
* dispelling/dispelled (i.e. negating the effect of an already-executed rewrite). Restoring? Debugging? Somethign along the lines of correcting code.
