In other words, dynamically scoped variables (instead of or in addition to to statically scoped ones) I agree, this be a very handy feature. Older versions of Lisp, including Emacs Lisp, worked this way, and although dynamic scope has largely fallen out of favor Common Lisp and R5RS Scheme provide this as an option (I think they're called "special" variables in Lisp). --Joe English jenglish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
