thanks. but, in this case, all source blocks are being tangled to the same file. which, for many (most?) languages (but not elisp), means the variable is going to be defined (and re-defined) at (the particular language's version of) global scope. which seems mostly redundant. that was what i was wondering about. cheers, Greg
