Well if the long name is the problem: use Some::Module::That::Defines::A::Class as Foo; my Foo $obj .= new; # OR # require Some::Module::That::Defines::A::Class; import Some::Module::That::Defines::A::Class as Foo; This seems to be more similar to what is done in other languages. You still have to write the class name repeatedly - but it does cut the typing. It does reduce the magic that is occuring behind the scenes (or at least redirects it to somewhere else). I guess Foo would be a full fledged class which inherits from Some::Module::That::Defines::A::Class. I doubt that it is optimal - but it does give a little bit of flexibility. Paul Seamons
