Bart, Peter, Oliver: thank you very much for such a detailed answer.

i had some weird behaviors those last months experimenting some zsh based
features and now completly understand why. the thing is most of them are
very usefull to me and cannot be converted to functions

some examples:

https://github.com/eiro/zexperiment/blob/master/lib/basics.zsh#L34
https://github.com/eiro/zexperiment/blob/master/bin/uze.zsh#L55

the only way to make it work a reliable way is to use a preprocessor so
i plan to use m4.

once again: thanks for helping.

regards
