I did to at first. > Perhaps 'modulescope' or 'module' would be better? Global is an somewhat short adjective that plausibly becomes a noun when pluralized. That is hard to match. I have thought of 'modular' as the actual meaning of 'global', but 'modulars' does not sound as good to me. > Am I the first peope to have thought of this and suggested it? You are the first people I remember making at least the 'modulescope' suggestion. Searching the newsgroup archive at Google would make sure ;-). > Is this a candidate for Python 3000 yet? Unlikely. I suspect that global meaning global to the module (as opposed to the collection of modules or compilation units) is established CS usage. Terry J.
