Not using (a small number of) globals needs either:

* functions that take everthing that they need in arguments.
  I tried that 30 years ago and never did it again, functions
  with 15 arguments are unweildy &* hard to maintain.
* Use OO.
  That means a whole step up in design, not always justified in small
  scripts. OO is not always the answer.
