Ah, ok. Yes, that is cleaner -- so &perl() is of somewhat limited
value.
I already have a Cisco.pm file, so adding a new funclet is no biggie.
Thanks for the idea.

Ewww. I think the parser should be able to handle those newlines.

When I need a multi-line &perl(), I throw the perl code into a sub in
my funclet file. E.g., do this in a Cisco.pm file:
sub max_test_num {
open(IN, "./mpi_test_suite -l|") || die("cant open");
while (<IN>) {
if (m/Num Tests : (\d+)/) {
close(IN);
return $1;
}
}
close(IN);
return "0";
}
Put your funclet file next to your INI file, since your INI file will
now require your funclet file:
foo/bar.ini
funclets/Cisco.pm
And then have this in your INI file:
[MTT]
...
funclet_files = &dirname("@INI_NAME@")/../funclets/Cisco.pm
...
max_test_num = &Cisco::max_test_num()
