Re: Q: Making an XEmacs package

Thanks to everybody. Allready now I feel much wiser. Stephen came up with a good description of the three ways variable declarations and when to use what. I may use (even quote) the description in an eventual patch to some documentaiton one day. Steve came up with a nice ASCII-drawing that I will save for eventual inclusion in some doc. I will probably also put a cross-ref from somewhere in the lispref manual to the node describing how to create "real" packages in the xemacs manual. Regarding the real-world example you came up with steve, I would consider it's me who did some bad coding (I must have been sleepy that day ;-). In that example I would say that the random table should be an optional parameter to the eicq-v5-encrypt funciton and hence the eicq-v5-encrypt math-definition, Discussion regarding that should continue on eicq-devel(a)lists.sf.net Jarl
