in reply to locating specific function calls

^C Next interpretation of OP then: to find all calls to a subroutine without executing it.

^I The PPI set of modules provide the means to parse Perl code without executing it and includes facilities for documenting and structurising the parse tree.

    My question explicitly states that I do not want to parse thousands of lines with PPI. I am looking for a different solution.

    In my terminolgy, the application is the end-user/final product, where modules are (reusable) components.

      Oops forgot that, sorry!
