"my" variables are lexically scoped to the curly braces that contain
them. That means that your $IAm is limited exactly to that init block.
Also, =~ isn't in perl6.
You can put "my $IAm" outside that block and assign to it inside the
block, though.

Hi Timo,
I did have to fix the syntax. It now looks like:
sub IAm () {
my $IAm = $?FILE;
$IAm ~~ s|.*"/"||;
return $IAm };
I had originally swiped it from some of my code in
Perl 5
But ... back to the original question, I am finding no
way to initialize variables inside a pm module globally
such that I don't have to constantly call the above
sub over and over.
Is there a way to set variables globally in pm
modules or do I have to constantly create them
inside my "is export" subs?
Thank you for the help!
Many thanks,
-T
