Subject: Always using let*
Date: Sun, 14 Sep 2014 21:46:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fvfukmso.fsf@Equus.decebal.nl> (raw)

Would it be OK to always use let*? I was just bitten by the fact that
with let you can not previous variables from the let statement, as is
possible with setq. So I am thinking about always using let*, so I do
not have to think about it. Or are there good reasons to use let when
you do not need let*?
