RE: Re: Depricated Features of the Language

So, has anyone seen uselocal "Some::Module";?

IIRC it's part of InterShop, the ecommerce package and it doesn't actually do anything with scoping, it's just a function that they include which adds their module libraries to @INC before using the module.

Been some time since I used it tho' so I could be misremembering.

Yes, That's it! I'm going to get into the app tomorrow. Whoever wrote these extensions sure used dynamic scoping, plug in whatever big name publicly traded consulting firm you choose, tsk, tsk! And these are the same people who are pushing Java! No wonder, their Perl is so wretched. Thanks for quelling my bad dream.
