in thread What is the scope of BEGIN? Or... when does it "begin?"

2) Of course %ENV is filled in before any BEGIN ever gets run. The nearby reply shows that to be true (and anything else just doesn't make sense).

1) Yes, I'm correct. But that just means that BEGIN blocks don't have any precedence over each other that impacts their order. They have to have an order, of course, because they don't run in parallel. The order they run in is the order they get compiled in (because they don't have any precedence over each other). (:
