Probably "esac" ends a case statement and "fi" ends an if statement, and "elif" may be shorthand for else if. I think "localbloc" and "proc" sound like ways of defining functions/procedures. Usually "default" is a keyword in case statements. Both "try_catch" and "stack" are probably useful for exception handling and reporting. No idea on "otherwise".

"otherwise" is used in some language (that I can't recall) for the 'otherwise' condition in a case statement, similar to how 'default' is used.

Given the logical and clearly related uses Eric has suggested, it sure looks like they are indeed reserved, but not-yet implemented, control keywords.

@Joe - how did you encounter these, ROM-walking?
