This sounds like a job for modperl. Persumably you want to just take a lot of existing functions, stick them in one script and have them available for other script to use. Create a file such as "myfile.pm". In that file you need at least the following: ====================== package myfile; # same name as myfile but without the .pm require Exporter; use strict; use warnings; our @ISA = qw(Exporter); our @EXPORT = qw( functions_to_export here); ... .. 1; # has to end with a 1 ============================= The file needs to be in @INC or the current directory of the calling script.
