Sourcing a script is equivalent to executing its commands in sequence. 
Variables in it are defined or modified by ":let" and undefined by 
":unlet". Script-local variables cannot be touched by anything outside 
the script; but a function or command defined in the script (and which 
could be called later from outside) might conceivably unlet them.

Best regards,
Tony.
