Gurus,

I'm almost ashamed to have to post this, because I know this is a newbie 
question, and I'm not really one of those any more, but I'm drawing a 
blank.  Isn't there an easier way to initialize a list of variables, to a 
common value, than this:

my ($a, $b, $c, $d, $e, $f) = ('init', 'init', 'init', 'init', 'init', 
'init');

I'm *sure* I've seen this done using map, but, like I said, every trip to 
the well yields an empty bucket--except for the no-brainer line above.

TIA, and PLEASE try not to laugh too loud...
