Hi all, Currently, the eval-expression command (more fondly known as M-:) evaluates its argument in a protected scope. The theory was to protect users from accidentally overwriting important things in conkeror's application scope. In practice, it's not so useful, because apart from the odd bit of arithmetic, I find that the main reason I ever want to use M-: is to redefine things in conkeror. Because of the protected scope, variables have to be prefixed with "conkeror." and function definitions have to be rephrased as assignments.
Experience now tells me this is more hassle than benefit. Should we change it? -- John Foerch _______________________________________________ Conkeror mailing list [email protected] https://www.mozdev.org/mailman/listinfo/conkeror
