It sounds like you want the be command in the interactive Perl debugger, which can be used to set future breakpoints. Or maybe the c command, which works like GDB's until if given an argument.
You can use a combination of the be command, the f command, the contents of %INC, and the c command to quickly navigate through your code.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
