Class
    Foam::dictionary

Description
    A list of keyword definitions, which are a keyword followed by a number
    of values (eg, words and numbers) or by a sub-dictionary.
    Since the dictionary format is used extensively throughout OpenFOAM for
    input/output files, there are many examples of its use.

    Dictionary keywords are a plain word or a pattern (regular expression).
    The general order for searching is as follows:
      - exact match
      - pattern match (in reverse order)
      - optional recursion into the enclosing (parent) dictionaries

    The dictionary class is the base class for IOdictionary and also serves
    as a bootstrap dictionary for the objectRegistry data dictionaries.

Note
    Within dictionaries, entries can be referenced by using the '$' syntax
    familiar from shell programming.
    A '.' separator is used when referencing sub-dictionary entries.
    Leading '.' prefixes can be used to specify an entry from a parent
    dictionary.
    An initial '^' anchor (or ':' for backward compatibility) specifies
    starting from the top-level entry.
    For example,

    \verbatim
    key1        val1;
    key2        $key1;   // use key1 value from current scope
    key3        $.key1;  // use key1 value from current scope

    subdict1
    {
        key1        val1b;
        key2        $..key1; // use key1 value from parent
        subdict2
        {
            key2    val2;
            key3    $...key1; // use key1 value from grandparent
        }
    }

    key4        $^subdict1.subdict2.key3;  // lookup with absolute scoping
    \endverbatim

    It is also possible to use the '${}' syntax for clarity.
