[TYPO3] Use of typoscript elements

[Lars Haendler]

Hi,

I have a general question concerning my usage of typoscript elements.

I normally use subparts like this:

page.10.subparts {
	LEFTNAVI < leftmenu
	[...]
}


leftnavi = HMENU
leftnavi {
	1 = TMENU
	[...]
}


In examples I often see instead of my "leftnavi" this: temp.leftnavi

Is it just nomenclature or a deeper sense I did not get till now?

Thanks
Lars
