There are more flags detailed in the Apache documentation.

To specifically answer your question though, "L" stands for "last":

Stop the rewriting process here and don't apply any more rewriting rules.

This corresponds to the Perl last command or the break command from the C language.

Use this flag to prevent the currently rewritten URL from being rewritten further by following rules.

There are a lot of other flags from "G" meaning "gone" - to send back a response meaning that this page has gone away permanently, to others.

I could give more examples, but a lot of them are hard to explain succinctly - instead I think it's probably as well to focus on the common ones, and leave the more advanced ones for people willing to read the documenation and experiment.
