in reply to Simple Module Tutorial

Thanks to the writer for your trouble. But everyone seems to get it except me. I have tried to duplicate your results.

I have:

- MyScript.pl under /storage/username/PERL_SCRIPTS/dev

- Test.pm under /storage/username/local/perl/site/lib/Test/Test.pm (I just replaced MyModule.pm with Test.pm).

The module code is exactly the same. In MyScript.pl I have added

use lib '/storage/username/local/perl/site/lib'; <p>and typed in the first two cases.</p> <code>perl MyScript.pl
gives: Undefined subroutine &main::func1 called at MyScript.pl line 10

Line 10 is:

print func1(@list),"\n";

after typing "use Test;"

What am I missing here? Also, is the BEGIN command supposed to be used in the Perl script? It gives syntax errors when I try to use it.

Thanks in advance,

Gideon
