If they're really big them maybe a __DATA__ area?

@array=<DATA>; chop @array; #zap off \n's ... __DATA__ one two three four and a half

If you use Inline::File then you can have multiple named DATA handles which can be accessed seperately via their <DATA> handles.

    Interesting... I seem to recall hearing the idea of multiple named __DATA__ areas before, but don't remember where.

    Too bad it doesn't work on Windows.
