Shell expansion is quite capable Smilie
Code:
./Included_Functions/module.dev.prj:				cmd="$(CAPS $typ)_New $lbl"

That is making the select'ed $typ to capital chars using the function named CAPS, to this the string _New is added and the variable argument $lbl is passed to this expaned new function.
In this example, the typ would be a file that were sourced and contained the function 'TYP_New', which then would be executed upon the call of $cmd

But you guys already done more crazy things Smilie Smilie

EDIT:
At first thought it'd fit, now i cant delete.

LaTeXML::Error(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       LaTeXML::Error(3pm)

NAME
"LaTeXML::Error" - Internal Error reporting code. DESCRIPTION
"LaTeXML::Error" does some simple stack analysis to generate more informative, readable, error messages for LaTeXML. Its routines are used by the error reporting methods from LaTeXML::Global, namely "Warn", "Error" and "Fatal". No user serviceable parts inside. No symbols are exported. Functions "$string = LaTeXML::Error::generateMessage($typ,$msg,$lng,@more);" Constructs an error or warning message based on the current stack and the current location in the document. $typ is a short string characterizing the type of message, such as "Error". $msg is the error message itself. If $lng is true, will generate a more verbose message; this also uses the VERBOSITY set in the $STATE. Longer messages will show a trace of the objects invoked on the stack, @more are additional strings to include in the message. "$string = LaTeXML::Error::stacktrace;" Return a formatted string showing a trace of the stackframes up until this function was invoked. "@objects = LaTeXML::Error::objectStack;" Return a list of objects invoked on the stack. This procedure only considers those stackframes which involve methods, and the objects are those (unique) objects that the method was called on. AUTHOR
