A bit late reply, sorry, but I find "()" to be quite nice. You just have to cultivate the habit of using it.	[reply]

`()` would be fine if you didn't then have to type `use Foo::Bar::Woz::Snuts (); Foo::Bar::Woz::Snuts::Wibble($x, $y)` [download] Python gets it right (well better at least) with `from foo.bar.woz import snuts; snuts.wibble(x, y)` [download] and suchlike. This is pretty much impossible in Perl due to symbol table access being absolute, not relative.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You don't if the module does its exporting right, and most do. `use Foo::Bar::Woz::Snuts qw( Wibble );` I realize you're talking about having relative spaces in the code though. To me that would add arbitrary levels of (human) ambiguity for the hacker trying to read it. I think this could be solved in Perl too with some export/namespace alias magick but I wouldn't like or use the feature.	[reply] [d/l]
