Are you assuming that the person looking at the file is also the file's author? In that situation, I would agree: you don't need to be warned that your file is set to use dynamic binding if you set it that way yourself. But I think it is useful to show this warning when person A looks at person B's file. Person A is likely to assume the file use lexical binding, when just about all files do so; therefore, it is useful to inform A that this file makes the unusual choice. > Compare this with files that have an unusual encoding or an EOL format > that is not the native one on the current platform: we provide an > indication on the mode line, but don't insist on having it stand out > too much, just a little. Maybe that too should be bolder just because it is so unusual that no one would be thinking about it. But I don't feel so strongly about either of these issues that I would argue about it. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
