Re: [ic] Accessing subs in the .pms

Typically, you can't access them directly. The [perl] and [mvasp]
blocks are some kind of "special" environment. You should look at
http://developer.akopia.com/cgi-bin/ic/dev/icconfig_30.html
(which is the section in the reference guide about the "Interchange
Perl Objects"). Additionally, the Tag Regeference shows how to access
the IC tags from within perl. Personally, I really dig this kind of
IC development. More and more I am making my pages one big [perl]
block.
You might ask why I even bother to use IC is almost all of my pages
are straight perl. Well, IC provides some really handy mechanisms for
handling e-comm. I could re-write them all in my own perl library,
but why? Even if I did, it wouldn't be as well tested as IC.
