<p>Class Fluid provides dynamically scoped ("fluid") variables modeled
|
12
|

after those of Common Lisp. It also gives you a convenient way to

reversibly change the values of globals.

<p>Fluid variables are useful when you want to pass information among related classes and methods without passing arguments all over the place, but you also want something a little more controlled than globals. They're not useful all that often, but they come in handy once in a while.</p>
