+The @@HLimited symbol limits the width available to recursive
+and receptive symbols within its right parameter to whatever
+is available without increasing the existing size of the
+@@HLimited object. So this symbol acts like @@Wide with
+respect to limiting the space occupied by recursive and receptive
+symbols, except that instead of enforcing a fixed constant limit,
+it enforces whatever size is already in place.
+@PP
+The @@VLimited symbol is exactly the same, except that it
+applies vertically rather than horizontally.
