Just write the functionality of the script as a module and put "standard usage" of it at the end like:
package main;
require File::Basename; File::Basename->import( qw(basename) );
if( &basename( $0 ) eq &basename( __FILE__ ) ) {
require CGI;
my $q= CGI->new();
# ...
}
that way you can make one file that is both a module and an all-in-one CGI script. This might even help the modulephobic slowly learn to like modules. (:

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).
