[gameprogrammer] Re: making a global instance

Try using a namespace, they're really simple to use and they, for the
most part, avoid nasty global variables... I'm not sure of a good url to
help with more info but basically you do something like:

namespace bla {
        int somevar;
}

Then, once you want to use somevar you can access it by bla::somevar or
you can do:
using namespace bla;

I'm not sure it's the best idea, but that's how I've done it in the past

See ya,
Eugene
