Several modern export tools such as Sub::Exporter and Exporter::Declare make it possible to rename subs that you import. They tend to use a consistent syntax: use Foo 'export_name' => {-as => 'new_name'}; As of yet Exporter.pm has no such capability. 1) Would anyone be opposed to having this functionality added? (and why?) 2) Does anyone oppose keeping the above syntax since it is consistent with everything else? 3) Are there any good technical reasons not to do this? Assuming there are no objections to the idea I would like to write a patch (unless someone else wants to do it). -ChadThread Next
