in reply to Running a sub before a script exits?

Would calling the save_config from a destructor on the object work for you? Something like the following added to package FooBar:

#untested
sub DESTROY {
    my $self = shift;
    $self->save_config;
}

      No problem. ;) I highly recommend all the various OO pods as well as theDamian's Object Oriented Perl. (I consulted the latter about DESTROY right before posting)
