expect globals

[AHinMaine]

can someone tell me why this:

> cat test.exp

#!/usr/local/bin/expect -f

global testvar
set testvar "foo"

proc testproc {} {
                send_user "var=$testvar"
}

testproc

gets this output?

> ./test.exp

can't read "testvar": no such variable
    while executing
"send_user "var=$testvar""
    (procedure "testproc" line 2)
    invoked from within
"testproc
"
    (file "./test.exp" line 10)

nevermind. Need to stick the

global testvar

inside the proc, not outside... --
