in reply to Exporting a Dispatch Table

You can export $typecolors like any other variable and use the referenced subs anywhere it lands. Use Exporter for this.

I wonder, though, if you're asking about getting a dispatch table from a module that doesn't already export it. Since $typecolors is a lexical variable, this won't be possible. You'll have to get the module that owns the variable to hand it over to you.

    Not quite. It would need to be a package (our) variable instead of a lexical (my) variable for Exporter to see it.
