in reply to Modules as executable scripts?

You can test whether Runnable.pm was called from the command line by comparing $0 to __FILE__.

I'm not convinced this is a good idea. I'd prefer to keep my modules distinct from my scripts and to only act like modules. That might save confusion on both the maintainer's and users' parts.
