I have dynamic binding script `rcd-template-eval'
RCD Template Interpolation System for Emacs
https://hyperscope.link/3/7/1/3/3/RCD-Template-Interpolation-System-for-Emacs.html
If I call `rcd-template-eval' from dynamic binding script, I guess
that works well.
If I call it from lexical bound script but don't use the hash to pass
it to `rcd-template-eval' that also works.
If I wish to pass a hash to function `rcd-template-eval' from lexical
bound script, that does not work without `dlet' and that is now broken
as `dlet' behaves not any more similar to `let*'
I have only 4120 WWW pages currently depending on `dlet', that is
interest large enough for function to exist.
If there is other solution that would work, I am glad to accept
it, except that I cannot and do not want to change dynamically bound
script to lexical for reasons previously explained.
