Lexical (my) variables cannot be localized, as the error tells you. Use my for that :-P

use strict;
my $tt = 3.14159;
{
  my $tt = 3;
  print "In block, \$tt = $tt\n";
  print "In block, \$::tt = $::tt\n";
}
print "Outside block, \$tt = $tt\n";
print "Outside block, \$::tt = $::tt\n";

local is for globals. But there's a way to get lexical globs, I wonder whether these can be localized... ;-)

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}
