I never remember the Carp function names

I wish I had aliases for these functions such as:

warn1
warnfull
die1
diefull
[download]

for dying with 1-level or full backtrace. The names croak, confess, carp, and cluck have no rhyme or reason - just alliteration :)

The mantra of every experienced web application developer is the same: thou shalt separate business logic from display. Ironically, almost all template engines allow violation of this separation principle, which is the very impetus for HTML template engine development.

`package Carpy; use strict; use warnings; use Carp (); sub import { my $caller = caller; no strict 'refs'; {$caller . "::warn1"} = \&{"Carp::carp"}; {$caller .

You know what, metaperl? I think you rock, and I am so glad you're here. I'm glad you've stuck around all these years. You've taken a lot of crap, from time to time, and you always just let it roll off your back, with utmost grace. You are an exemplary monk. Carry on. :-) I reckon we are the only monastery ever to have a dungeon stuffed with 16,000 zombies.	[reply]

Or, consider using Carp::Always. Now all your die()'s and warn()'s produce backtraces. The Carp concept is kinda silly anyway, methinks.	[reply]

Could you elaborate about the silliness part?	[reply]

Stop carping, willya? Or would we say that you are clucking? ;-)	[reply]
