In Re your quibble on:

sub options
{
    use Getopt::Long;
. . .

I've noticed that "use"age in several actual O'Reilly books written by various "Big Name" perl gurus. It seems to me that they do that when the only reason for the "use ...;" is completely within the subroutine. Personally I find that to be kinda self documenting. Plus it really doesn't matter where you place a "BEGIN{}" or "use ...;" as they all get done at compile time in the order they occur in the code.

However I generally place all "use"ages at the top of the script myself.
