1. There is no switch case feature in perl by default. So you may have to use if-elsif-else blocks. Or you could install the Switch.pm module and use switch case.

2. To pass option to Vmax lib:

in main.pl:

Code:
use Vmax;
[...]

my $option = <option_from_command_line>;

Vmax::set_option($option);
Vmax::work_pg(<args>);
[...]

in Vmax.pm:

Code:
my $option = "";
sub set_option {
    $option = shift;
}

if ($option == 1) {
    %pg = ( ... );
}
elsif ($option == 2) {
    %pg = ( ... );
}
[...]

sub work_pg {
    [...]
}

Please correct me if you find a better method. Thanks.

tk::frame

Frame(3)						User Contributed Perl Documentation						  Frame(3)

NAME

       Tk::Frame - Create and manipulate Frame widgets

SYNOPSIS

	   $frame = $parent->Frame(?options?);

STANDARD OPTIONS

       -borderwidth   -highlightbackground     -highlightthickness -takefocus -class	-highlightcolor     -relief -cursor

       See Tk::options for details of the standard options.

WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS
       Name:	 background
       Class:	 Background
       Switch:	 -background
	   This option is the same as the standard background option except that its value may also be specified as an undefined value.  In this
	   case, the widget will display no background or border, and no colors will be consumed from its colormap for its background and border.

       Name:	 colormap
       Class:	 Colormap
       Switch:	 -colormap
	   Specifies a colormap to use for the window.	The value may be either new, in which case a new colormap is created for the window and
	   its children, or the name of another window (which must be on the same screen and have the same visual as $widget), in which case the
	   new window will use the colormap from the specified window.	If the colormap option is not specified, the new window uses the same
	   colormap as its parent.  This option may not be changed with the configure method.

       Name:	 container
       Class:	 Container
       Switch:	 -container
	   The value must be a boolean.  If true, it means that this window will be used as a container in which some other application will be
	   embedded (for example, a Tk toplevel can be embedded using the -use option).  The window will support the appropriate window manager
	   protocols for things like geometry requests.  The window should not have any children of its own in this application.  This option may
	   not be changed with the configure method.

       Name:	 height
       Class:	 Height
       Switch:	 -height
	   Specifies the desired height for the window in any of the forms acceptable to Tk_GetPixels.	If this option is less than or equal to
	   zero then the window will not request any size at all.

       Name:	 visual
       Class:	 Visual
       Switch:	 -visual
	   Specifies visual information for the new window in any of the forms accepted by Tk_GetVisual.  If this option is not specified, the new
	   window will use the same visual as its parent.  The visual option may not be modified with the configure method.

       Name:	 width
       Class:	 Width
       Switch:	 -width
	   Specifies the desired width for the window in any of the forms acceptable to Tk_GetPixels.  If this option is less than or equal to
	   zero then the window will not request any size at all.

DESCRIPTION

       The Frame method creates a new window (given by the $widget argument) and makes it into a frame widget.	Additional options, described
       above, may be specified on the command line or in the option database to configure aspects of the frame such as its background color and
       relief.	The frame command returns the path name of the new window.

       A frame is a simple widget.  Its primary purpose is to act as a spacer or container for complex window layouts.	The only features of a
       frame are its background color and an optional 3-D border to make the frame appear raised or sunken.

WIDGET METHODS

       The Frame method creates a widget object.  This object supports the configure and cget methods described in Tk::options which can be used
       to enquire and modify the options described above.  The widget also inherits all the methods provided by the generic Tk::Widget class.

BINDINGS

       When a new frame is created, it has no default event bindings: frames are not intended to be interactive.

KEYWORDS

       frame, widget
