I have an idea. What if we created a variable_scope command?
Bad markerting idea. Nobody programs in this idiom. (Well, I don't
know about Perl, as far as I'm concerned they're nobody. ;-) Lotsa
people program with functions and would expect a scripting language to
have functions. Minimize the number of "CMake specific weird things"
people have to learn, if you want more users. SETLOCAL is not so
objectionable, didn't some Unix shells have this historically?
The problem is what does SETLOCAL mean? There is no scope in cmake
right now. So, I guess you are saying add functions. I am not even
sure what those will be... Many languages have the idea of scope.
Braces in C++. This would just be a way of creating scope.
