Hi again Stas & Perrin, So, its a no-can-do then.
I'll keep putting the "use" in every module to import the symbols in the proper namespace. Alternatively I guess I could probably use the functions with fully qualfied name Apache::ReadConfig::myFunction(), however this would add extra typing and this is exactly what I was trying to escape from. Thanks everyone for your time and kind answers. Cheers, Lian Sebe, M.Sc.
