Thanks a lot to Jeff 'japhy' Pinyan and Etienne Marcotte for helping me understand packages and variable references today!
It's starting to become clear to me now. Thank you. I have to options. Use "require Exporter" and export the variables I would like to, which could be cumbersome if the variable list gets long, and could cause conflicts between exported package variables (globals) and locals of the same name. --or-- Reference the package (global) variables as $pkgname::variable, typing a little more, but avoiding abmiguity. I've used these from other's examples in the past, but now I understand them well enough to construct and use them myself. My Perl knowledge just went up another knotch!
