Hi Group,

In the package, say, *PVectorCalculus*,  stored in the folder *Personal*, I
have a function  called *CriticalPoints*.

When asking for the definition of that function by using

??CriticalPoints

I get:

 >CriticalPoints[func,vars] computes the critical points of ....

 >CriticalPoints [Personal`PVectorCalulus`
Private`f_,Personal`PVectorCalculus`Private`vars_List]:=
Solve[EqSystem[Grad[Personal`
`PVectorCalculus`Private`f,`PVectorCalculus`Private`vars]],`PVectorCalculus`
Private`vars]

Where every 'variable'  is attached to *Personal`PVectorCalulus` Private`*
yielding a definition  difficult to read.

For clarity, I would preferred to have

 >CriticalPoints [f_,vars_List]:= Solve[EqSystem[Grad[f,vars]],vars]

Getting rid of  *Personal`PVectorCalulus` Private`*

Any clue?
