in this case you might consider using modules
so, then you can do something like this in x1.pl
use SOME_PACKAGE_NAME;
$obj = new SOME_PACKAGE_NAME;
#do x1 stuff
$obj->call_x2_functions($arg1, $arg2);
#call various functions to do x2 things
print "some output";
#done with program
other things you should look into is the 'require'
I'm not too verse in that, so I can't comment much further.
