Hi -
1) use Carp; - it shows errors from the caller's
perspective. Look at the docs, but you car use
'carp' (warinig) or 'croak' (die).
2) the perl built-in function 'caller' gives line and
script name information for the caller, the caller's
caller, etc. Check the docs to roll your own carp.
3) Go to sleep.
