I think you meant to say "use strict only works in the current lexical scope" which is slightly different from the current package

Nope, the current package holds for the length of the current lexical scope^[1], which is usually the file-level lexical scope. See the docs for more info.

^[1] although the 5.005 docs say it is dynamically scoped but I'm pretty sure it's lexically scoped because it takes effect at compile-time which isn't orthogonal with dynamically scoping

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
