in reply to Set of scripts using same variables

If they are configuration vars, then I would go with rinceWind's suggestion of the Config::* modules.

If you have groups of scripts with that same piece of code, you can just stick it in a common script an require it.

Script1.pl
require 'common_stuff.pl'; &common_function;

common_stuff.pl
sub common_function(){ #...code goes here... }
