Then I think to myself "I should really be using a proper version of this, that won't break in the case of a THROW or something similar". I also think "this sounds a bit like dynamic scoping" but it's not like I'm referring to a different variable, 15:44:16 I just want it to have a different value during that time. Does it make sense to use global variables like this? 15:46:18 --- quit: Mat4 (Quit: Yaaic - Yet another Android IRC client - http://www.yaaic.org) 15:56:41 --- quit: karswell_ (Remote host closed the connection) 15:58:09 --- join: karswell_ (~user@89.39.107.195) joined #forth 16:03:12 --- quit: pierpal (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) 16:15:36 --- join: dave9 (~dave@207.213.dsl.syd.iprimus.net.au) joined #forth 16:16:08 hi 16:16:17 --- join: pierpa (57100917@gateway/web/freenode/ip.87.16.9.23) joined #forth 16:27:28 --- nick: karswell_ -> karswell 16:34:23 reepca, (just out of curiosity) Which are the use cases?
