But since the "cl-" prefix has to be used for global (aka dynamically scoped) variables, it's good practice to *not* use it for lexically scoped variables. IOW, I'm all for such cosmetic changes that harmonize the code, but we should do that by removing (rather than adding) the "cl-" prefix where it's not needed. Stefan
