I agree that there is no obvious category for your program at the
'scripts' page on cpan.org -- but I think that's because that page is
used very little and is of little use in distributing code. You'd be
much better off posting it on perlmonks.org and requesting feedback on
it there.
Yeah, this list isn't dead.
That being said, you're going to catch a tremendous amount of flack for
naming a program with a word that is reserved by Perl for its own use:
sub.
I named it sub because it creates sub's. It's easy to remember.
If you're a relative newcomer and want to get feedback on your Perl
programs, I recommend perl-beginners at Yahoo Groups. I spent several
years reading that list every day when I was starting. I believe there
may also be a perl beginners list at perl.org.
HTH

Yeah, I'm relatively new to Perl; I didn't starting programming in it
until Perl 4. Perl 5 is all new to me :)
I shall try your suggestion with perkmonks.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.
Regardless of how small the crowd is, there is always one in
it who has to find out the hard way that the laws of physics
apply to them too.
