in reply to Same function multiples unknown modules

wouldnt it be something like
myfistadin::runonce(); mysecondadin::runonce();
where myfirstadin would be myfirstadin.pm
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; package test1; sub runonce { print "hello"; } 1;
and I beleive you would use require "myfirstadin.pm";

update
I misread, my post doesnt exactly answer your question...
