:) - Actually, I did learn OO in Java b4 trying to learn it in Perl. Perl's syntax is a lot more difficult, and not as powerful - multilpe parents just aren't a good idea. I'll chuck up some objects when I get the chance, sure. I could have made it with better inheritance, but I encountered problems when using an initializer in the superclass. Had to move it down to bottom of class hierarchy. Generalizing was what I wanted to do - unfortunately my teacher saw otherwise. He also thinks that Austin Powerrs is still in (shudders *repressed memories surface*). Prob with one-line constructor is that it's 'bad form' - teacher hates not pre-declaring variables. That's what you do in Java constructors, so illogically you do that in Perl as well. I had my constructors loaded with undefs and dumb comments saying what I was doing. I'll be sure to get that on my scratchpad soon.
