Python can use add_sub to add the function to Tcl's namespace. This is
both useful and necessary because function and variable names don't

The following code in line
x27;t add find_global variants
that lookup globals in HLL's? Right now we have find_global_p_p_s.
Adding find_global_p_s_p_s would let me reach into Tcl's private very
easily instead of having to crawl the namespaces myself.
$P0 = find_global '_tcl', ['Foo'; 'Bar'], "baz"
Thanks,

able to get a namespace at runtime... which translates to the easiest
way for Tcl to use namespaces.

I'd
prefer to have C< .namespace [] > so that we could also have the
matching C< find_global [], 'foo' >. Otherwise find_global becomes a
two step operation for finding globals in the root HLL namespace.
Oh, and I've committed some more failing tests. :-)

rst, I think C< [] > *is* a name.
Second, any solution which involves giving the HLL namespace a
different name will have to either (a) add new opcodes, (b) add more
code for all the other cases by making all referencing originate at
the root, or (c) add a special syntax, none of which is simple.

Works for me. And that is the current meaning of two-parameter find_global,
so it's not a stretch.
Works for me too. I'm not sure that I like the rename (I can't
decide), but the name itself doesn't matter much. The new opcodes (the
presence of get_cur_global) may actually make things easier for Tcl if
we ever compile to 100% inlined PIR.
This is a different route than I was trying to take us, but it should
be almost functionally equivalent, so I'm happy with it.
