in thread passing a $var thru a "use module($var)"

Woah ... i never said that OO was the tool ... those are your words, not mine. Please do not take my node out of context.

Secondly, i said that i didn't like Import, not Export ... where in File::Basename is importing required to use it procedurally? It isn't. Only Export is needed for that.

Maybe i should clarify ... only Export is needed by the client.

    I see no distinction between import and export. There's no point in exporting if you're not going to import, and you can't import if there was no export. Saying you like one more than the other seems like deliberate nonsense intended to confuse an android named Norman.
