You're welcome. I'm sorry I wasn't able to be more help. It's nice to see new faces in the Perl community. I just don't swallow the "Perl 5 is dead" mantra. It's installed by default on an LSB compliant Linux install and just too damned useful a tool to be ignored.

Every new face I see proves me right.

Good luck with your project. If you get stumped again, feel free to ask more questions. I'll try to be more useful next time.

Also, since you're maintaining and (I presume) refactoring some Perl 5 code, you might be interested in Modern Perl, 4th Edition because it covers the Moose object system. Moose and kindred libraries Moo and Mouse are what make "Modern Perl 5" a thing in the minds of many.

If you're still struggling with the basics, check out Beginning Perl, 1st Edition by Curtis "Ovid" Poe. It's a wonderful text that is most definitely not stuck in the 1990's.
