(My remaining is in bold at the end)

If I have a module "mine.pm" containing package "thispack" and when used I want it to export method "thisfunc" (without having to use "thispack::thisfunc", how can I do that?

What I tried thus far is:
in the module
{ package thispack; use base ("Exporter"); our @EXPORT = ("thisfunc"); sub thisfunc {

then in some script
use mine ("thispack");
However, calls to "thisfunc" still require the package name. What have I got wrong?


LATER: ahh, it seems the .pm name and the package name have to be the same!
Does that mean I have to put multiple packages in seperate modules??!?
