Sorry for incomplete message, jethro.
In fact I did add the last statement 1; The error message says: Global symbol "%module" requires explicit package name at ... How should I name a hash from the module?
As to:
I don't have the slightest idea why this was built into the module system
I simply cannot figure out how can I get it otherwise. One way is simply to let the hash in the main file, but as already said the hash grows huge and the main file will be confusing.
Thanks.

• 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).
