This is important. So you won't drive yourself insane looking through your own code. Consider Perl Best Practices by Damian Conway. It's a tedious book, and you don't have to eat all of it. But there's some real useful stuff in there about consistency and why.

    Indenting the lines containing the { and } is very strange, but at least it is consistent.
