I am sure there are plenty of others, 3 I would suggest, - Learning Perl Objects, References, and Modules - Object Oriented Perl - The Pragmatic Programmer Sounds like the system has grown enough that it should be broken into objects to prevent duplication, among all of the other things OOP provides. The first two above should give you the tools to accomplish the suggestions about general programming that the third provides.
