Re: Is your module clobbering predefined variables?

No, that would be very, very bad. That would disable you to write functions "the Perl" way, that is, when given no arguments, they act on $_.

Besides, from the language aspect, there is no such thing as a "module scope".

I did not say that it should be mandatorily localized. What I meant was to localize it by default, and when the author wants there should be a language construct to override that behaviour.	[reply]
