Re^3: 1 Object 2 Files

Actually, you do if you want use File::Additional; to work. Perl does enforce that if you say use Foo::Bar::Baz; that there actually exists a Foo/Bar/Baz.pm somewhere in your @INC and that it has, somewhere, a line saying package Foo::Bar::Baz;. Otherwise, it will bitch at you.

Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.

Huh. Learn something new every day. :-) I could have sworn this didn't work, but I tried it out on Perls back to 5.005_02 and it works just fine. Thanks for the lesson. :-) Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing. Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
