Specifying Global Variables As Global Using ::

In 3ds Max 8 and higher, a global variable can be specified by preceding its name with double-colon '::'.

Such names are looked for only in the global variable pool, and will be created there if they do not currently exist.

FOR EXAMPLE:

``` ( local pi = "Hello!" format "% : %\n" pi ::pi fn test x:pi y:::pi = format "% : %\n" x y test() )

```

OUTPUT:

``` Hello! : 3.14159 Hello! : 3.14159

```
