in reply to Mixing OO & non OO code in a module
I'd normally make such things class methods - if I don't, I find I'm always forgetting to type My::Class::function(...) instead of My::Class->function(...), and it becomes a lot more convenient if I have the classname in a variable:
my $class = "My::Class"; my @coords = $class->look_at(something);
