Good point - however I /never/ use 'With'

If I do have to have a Global or a Unit level variable, then I try to
make it part of a Record so it looks like :

g.DataPath
cmn.SomeFlag

I'm also keen on using the Unit name as a prefix if there is any doubt
about where a Variable, Procedure or Function 'comes from'
