your comments are true as they pertain to perl..
i understand how local works - no problem there.
in the case of embperl however:
i believe that the escaping has already occurred on the
block before it is processed, and therefore, in the example
that you gave, $var would still be subject to the $escmode
that was operating when the block started. changing it from within
the block will have no effect on that block, only subsequent blocks.
so, local $escmode has no effect on any embperl processing.
