Thanks Robert! That is exactly what I was searching for.
It's working I don't have any issues with that :), but I'd like to know
something...can I make it work with "use strict"?
Using your example would say:
Global symbol "$home_directory" requires explicit package name at
test.pl
That appears even if "require" if over "use strict".
Thanks!
Martin
