Re: Reference to an anon sub from within.

The whole point of a subroutine is to have reusable code or to break something into logical steps. If you're not storing the reference anywhere, what you have isn't a subroutine, it's just code. So, instead of using an anonymous sub, you could write it like so:

{
   #your code goes here
}

The braces give everything it's own lexical scope, just like a subroutine has.
