Leo Lapworth was trying to debug something with Devel::DProf and couldn't understand why BEGIN was called more than once. Robert Price and Mark Fowler pointed out that 'use Module LIST' is exactly equivalent to 'BEGIN { require Module; import Module LIST; }', so the module was being use-d in multiple places, which is fine: http://www.mail-archive.com/london-pm%40lists.dircon.co.uk/msg02667.html Did I? It's not you know. You forgot this bit of the perldoc -f use as well: If you don't want your namespace altered, explicitly supply an empty list: use Module (); That is exactly equivalent to BEGIN { require Module } i.e. that use Module and use Module() are ne.

Content-type: matter-transport/beer-stream That's not right. MIMEs do type/format (e.g. image/gif.) So it'd more likely be: Content-type: beer/guinness Later.
