I think this sums it all up nicely. I personally also think that
Richard's listed basically all instances where truly global access is required.
And, at this point, we have submissions with four ways of implementing
truly global access:
1. Common block
2. System variable
3. Run-time function
4. File
Of these, Common blocks look the best to me.
Any other ideas?
Cheers,
Pavel
