Hi Eric,

I've noticed this, too, but never investigated.

Is there some way to know which variables are "global" and which can be
set "locally"?

Also, (completely naively) is it difficult to make "global" variables
"local", or is it something simple, like making a function interactive?  

All the best,
Tom
