@xoft, with the current processing, the order won't make any difference as the information about globals is not passed between processed files. There is a "slower" analysis mode that also handles "require" calls, but it's disabled because it's slower, generates false positives, and only looks into "require", but not something like "dofile" or take load order into account.

Yes, those will get reported as "first use of unknown global function '....'", but those will be reported only once per file. I tried to find a sweet spot between usefulness of the report and all the corner cases that need to be handled for full support.
I think "Analyze All" is still useful in its current form, just not as powerful as it could (theoretically) be
