in thread Can I please have *simple* modules?

What? You only have at most one for() statement, or one while (<$handle>) statement per program? Or do you factor that out as well?

Never writing the same thing twice doesn't work on a low level. Accessors are low level.

    They follow a repetitive pattern. So you write a closure that encapsulates this pattern and assign instances of it to globs in your symbol table. This is Perl, not C. Copypasting is stupid busywork.

    Makeshifts last the longest.

    Damn, you tell me that after I spent hours trying to figure out how to avoid writing and rewriting #!/usr/bin/perl in all my programs! ;-)

    (Well, actually I tend to use editor templates for that...)
