Hi, I'm struggling with the next problem,

I made a small function I use to replace variables inside a string:

rep-vars: func [str /local var beg end] [
    parse str [
        some [
            to ":" beg: ":" copy var to ":" ":" end: (
                var: to-word var
                change/part beg get var end
            )
        ]
        to end
    ]
]

this function let me replace variables inside a string:

>> var1: "here"
>> var2: "there"
>> str: "some vars :var1: and some vars :var2:"  
>> rep-vars str
>> probe str
== "some vars here and some vars there"

what I need to solve is the function only works with global variables,
but of course not from a function using locals:

new-func: func [/local lvar lstr] [
        lvar: "locally"
        lstr: "a var used :lvar:"
        rep-vars lstr   ;; ERROR 
]

May be the solution is the bind function but I don't get how
any ideas?

BTW, I never before has used the bind function, so I'm an absolute
beginner in "bindology"!
