Basically, |Ltac| toplevel definitions are made as follows:
-.. cmd:: Ltac @ident {* @ident} := @expr
+.. cmd:: {? Local} Ltac @ident {* @ident} := @expr
+ :name: Ltac
This defines a new |Ltac| function that can be used in any tactic
script or new |Ltac| toplevel definition.
+ If preceded by the keyword ``Local``, the tactic definition will not be
+ exported outside the current module.
+
.. note::
The preceding definition can equivalently be written:
:n:`Ltac @ident := fun {+ @ident} => @expr`
- Recursive and mutual recursive function definitions are also possible
- with the syntax:
-
.. cmdv:: Ltac @ident {* @ident} {* with @ident {* @ident}} := @expr
- It is also possible to *redefine* an existing user-defined tactic using the syntax:
+ This syntax allows recursive and mutual recursive function definitions.
.. cmdv:: Ltac @qualid {* @ident} ::= @expr
+ This syntax *redefines* an existing user-defined tactic.

A previous definition of qualid must exist in the environment. The new
definition will always be used instead of the old one and it goes across
module boundaries.
