Subject: Re: Lions & tigers & variables - Oh my! [was: Lisp error on function :documentation]
Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2022 07:27:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8735bkbcy5.fsf@dataswamp.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: SJ0PR10MB5488AA2F20F919FE8F17372FF3289@SJ0PR10MB5488.namprd10.prod.outlook.com

I wrote in another post that all global variables are
dynamic/special but not all dynamic/special variables are
global, however this is incorrect, it only happens with
`defvar', not `setq' ...

(setq some-var-1 111)

(defvar some-var-2 222)

(special-variable-p 'some-var-1) ; nil

(special-variable-p 'some-var-2) ; t

(defun test-global-vars ()
  (list some-var-1 some-var-2) )

(let ((some-var-1 111000)
      (some-var-2 222000) )
  (test-global-vars) ) ; 111 222000
