Shawn,
Could you give an example of that?
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my %test_hash = (
one => 'no problem',
two => 'still no problem'
);
print $test_hash{ one }; # prints 'no problem' (without quotes)
With the '=>' (a.k.a. 'fat comma'), the left side of the operator does no need to be
quoted if it
does not contain whitespace.
Cheers,
Curtis "Ovid" Poe

Someone asked me how to count to 10 in Perl:
push@A,$_ for reverse q.e...q.n.;for(@A){$_=unpack(q|c|,$_);@a=split//;
shift@a;shift@a if $a[$[]eq$[;$_=join q||,@a};print $_,$/for reverse @A
