The current directory '.' is a member of @INC, so if you
simply write your Perl module file in same directory as
the calling program it will work fine (as long as you don't
use a module name that already exists amongst the installed
modules). Try the following files. It should be easy enough
to expand from there to what you want.
** FILE ABC.pm
package ABC;
use strict;
require Exporter;
our @ISA = qw/ Exporter /;
our @EXPORT = qw/ xyz /;
sub xyz {
print "ABC::xyz() called\n";
}
** FILE xyz.pl
use strict;
use warnings;
use ABC;
xyz();
** OUTPUT
ABC::xyz() called
