Once your script ends, that package ends as well.
Unless you run under mod_perl or a similar environment that keeps the modules loaded.

    mod_perl did not keep the modules loaded (if I remember correctly, it has been a long time since I used mod_perl), it kept the scripts loaded (which then persisted the use-d modules).

    You can do the same "trick" here: rewrite the script so it never ends but at the end loops back to the beginning and waits for another input.

    A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
