It might be that fixing one or both of the above would reduce the DTML pain factor quite a bit. Certainly, it's time to do whatever it takes to banish these "-"-named variables, IMHO.
I agree, changing the "-" to "_" would remove a whole ton of posts on this list and mean I could chop a whole bunch of <dtml-let item=sequence-item>. I really only see negative reasons for a "-".
For once I will send a "me too" to the list. "sequence-item" is a simple and plain design error. Decapricate it and and let us use "sequence_item" etc. together with the other for a while and then drop the old form. It is the single most annoying thing in dtml, and as far as I can see in the source it should be trivial to give all those sequence-* a sequence_* name also. Regards Max M Max M. W.
