Ah... you are right about confused, but I question your usage of highly. I.e.:

our $mp = __PACKAGE__->Data::Vars::new();
[download]

Now on to the next problem.

You see, this is a 6 year old program that I've been trying to modernize and re-factor over time. At one point everything was in MyBigOne::TorClient -- and it was unmaintainable spaghetti with little ability for extension.

I needed it to be extensible, Talk to multiple TorClients, Multiple Trackers Multiple TID's... Multiple and different instances of each type of object.

Anyway, as 1 module, it was a mess. Switch parsing was done manually, was a mess. So I started trying to break things into logical boundaries... This code was so old it used almost none of my newer routines that simplify things.

But when you mentioned DV -- I thought it shouldn't even be trying to go there...why? Cuz it wasn't called via the parent-module name.

Sigh. Thanks!
