What you want to do is not possible. However, there are a number of ways to
"fake" global-local variables.
You could create one global variable (in this example, "holdEm") containing
many items.
For example:
put "1,5.67,fred,in,0,,rain" into holdEm
stores seven items in the variable named holdEm. To avoid a lot of messy
initialization, the information in the variable could be saved in a field:
put holdEm into field storeVars
and restored to the variable when the stack opens:
put line 1 of field storeVars into holdEm
This is much faster than seven put statements.
