5.1 Different Scopes
In Hemlock the values of variables (page 6),
key-bindings (page 1.3.1) and
character-attributes (page 9) may
depend on the current-buffer and the modes
active in it. There are three possible scopes for
Hemlock values:
[annotate]
- buffer local
- The value is present only if the buffer it is local
to is the current-buffer. [annotate]
- mode local
- The value is present only when the mode it is local to
is active in the current-buffer. [annotate]
- global
- The value is always present unless shadowed by a buffer or
mode local value.
