style.
I take advantage of a "C-ism" to more or less simulate class variables.
If you declare your globals as "static", they're only visible from
within the same file.
There are obviously cases where this approach breaks - more than one
class declared in a file, or a class that's in several categories that
are spread across multiple files, for instance. But for the simplest and
most common case, where a file contains a single class, and that class
is entirely defined in that file, it's adequate.
