in reply to Constant names come into conflict with Perl style?
From the camel, 3rd Ed. p.218:
"Perl doesn't force a particular capitalization style on your subroutine names. However, one loosely held convention is that functions called indirectly by Perl's runtime system (BEGIN, CHECK, INIT, END, AUTOLOAD, DESTROY...)are in all capitals, so you might want to avoid using that style. (But subroutines used for constant values are customarily named with all caps too. That's okay. We hope...)"
I tried arguing with a camel twice - the second time the excuse of curiosity invalidated, leaving stupidity as the only explanation...
