( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Part of what you say is a good idea, but part seems somewhat... well, wasteful.

I have a toolkit-type module that I import to give some commonly-used functions, like a sub that implements s/^\s+|\s+$//g;.

But for stuff like use strict; use warnings; use Carp;, what's wrong with using a template (or macro, or whatnot) in your editor? It makes it much easier for future maintainers to see what's going on, rather than making them dig into another module just to find out that it repackages common pragmas and modules.

Besides, my shortcut for such things ('ns'+Ctrl-Space) is much faster than even typing 'use My::Tools;'. I guess I don't see why you'd want common template-esque things packaged into a module.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
