First, what are you trying to acheive. Global variables are rarely a good idea, as is sharing variables between files. So the question is, why are you trying to share a variable between files using globals? My suggestion is you should be using an exporter of some kind, or qualifying the variables by name at very least. Also, why are you *requiring* .pl files by string name? That is reasonably poor design and I would be interested in learning what educational material you are consuming that lead you to your current course of action so I can make a point of not recommending it =)
Thank you, Kent. I studied perldoc perl* pages years ago. Requiring I have made "accidentally" while stripping down the example. I wanted not to use "use", to get rid of import. I want to use one global hash variable for options or configuration variables like verbose, debug. I don't want to pass them to each function or to almost each object.
