Yeah, but that's still calling a perl subroutine, just without a request pointer.

For that to work you'd need to get it into the perl environment as a global, before parsing the perl file. It'd also have to be made constant to prevent people from doing stupid things.

I'll take a look at it and see if it's doable.

I just... feel so dirty after looking at perl... or the embedding API... or the documentation for the embedding API. It's like digging in to a big bowl of chocolate pudding, to discover it's actually dog shit.
