in reply to importing/removing functions from a module into the main namespace

Do Dominus's very very short tutorial on Modules.

Download the entire thing as a zip. Do all the exercises carefully. It should take half a day or so. You should then be able to start moving stuff out of your code into modules

Then, if you want more clarification, do perlboot and perltoot. And the other perl core documentation.

But Dominus's tutorial is what got me started if you just want the basics. Good luck!

    I think my problem is that I'm thinking in Python. I was forced to learn Python for a project I'm working on and have been using that almost exclusively for 4+ months. I've pulled out my copy of Advanced Perl Programming to get me back in the right mindset :P
