Re: Calling a script from a script with GetOpt::Long arguments

But why don't you make it like this:

for my $file (@files) {
    heavy_lifter($file);
}

sub heavy_lifter {
    my $file = shift;
    # heavy stuff
}

Just two more ¢...

Thanks, I could have done that for sure, but for some gut reason, my intention was to let the original script intact. I have had a few scripts in the past who grew into a number of variants each tailored to a given context, but also with numerous small improvements not shared among all versions. I thought it was better to keep it modular.	[reply]
