Re: To module or not? in thread To module or not?  A follow up
question might be: is there a way to have global variable shared
between the main::space and the module::space so I don't have to
keep passing the same values over and over? (I know, not a good
idea, but just for the sake of discussion)  So, instead of:
#MAIN: my $foo = "aaaaaaa"; my $bar = "bbbbbb"; print
add_strings ($foo, $bar);  Be able to just have:  #MAIN: my $foo
= "aaaaaaa"; my $bar = "bbbbbb"; print add_strings (); #MODULE:
our ($foo, $bar); #this might be make-believe add_strings { my
$newstring = $foo . $bar; return ($newstring); }   Comment on
