--% ADDINFORMATION CODE
--% This code adds various items to the special value of $Information,
--% in order to keep track of all the compiler's information about
--% various categories and similar objects
--% An actual piece of (unconditional) information can have one of 3 forms:
--%  (ATTRIBUTE domainname attribute)
--%              --These are only stored here
--%  (SIGNATURE domainname operator signature)
--%              --These are also stored as 'modemap' properties
--%  (has domainname categoryexpression)
--%              --These are also stored as 'value' properties
--% Conditional attributes are of the form
--%  (%when
--%  (condition info info ...)
--%  ... )
--% where the condition looks like a 'has' clause, or the 'and' of several
--% 'has' clauses:
--%   (has name categoryexpression)
--%   (has name (ATTRIBUTE attribute))
--%   (has name (SIGNATURE operator signature))
--% The use of two representations is admitted to be clumsy
