I recently discovered that blockMeshDict can be made more structured by using the 'define' keyword. Can someone tell me what other such facilities are available with blockMesh?

For instance what does this statement do:
define(hex2D, hex ($1b $2b $3b $4b $1t $2t $3t $4t))

This is m4 syntax? 'man m4'. It just defines a macro so e.g. hex2d(AA,BB,CC,DD) becomes
hex(AAb BBb CCb DDb AAt BBt CCt DDt).
