So shortly put: dynamic scopes are a way for TextMate to expose various context dependent state variables in a way that should allow bundle items to use them.
Do I understand correctly that this would allow me to highlight local variables differently than global ones, for languages where one or the other must be explicitly declared? That would be very welcome.
By “state variables” I refer to the internal variables of TextMate which describe state. For example the TextMate source might have a variable which tell whether or not the caret is inside a snippet placeholder.
So it has nothing to do with variables declared in your source code.
