( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
In addition to gjb's comments, if you are worried about requring too much 'stuff' that may not be needed during any one run, you could eval your commands and build your require/use list accordingly:
if($command = 'getuser') { eval { use MyCode::Users; }; getuser(); }

That way if you break up your code into multiple scripts and require them (as per gjb's comments), you are still only loading that which you need, dynamically. If you have a lot of subs and a lot of 'commands', this can require some precise forethought, but a little design could save you lots of resources in the long run.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
