I kind of like 'flirt'. But I still don't understand what it brings more than a classic 'map', or why The Power That Is didn't just decided to do an overloading of =~ (so @a =~ /stuff/ would work). Or go the mnemotechnic way and use @=~, which would, for obvious reasons, be named 'the fecondation operator'. <g> Joy, `/. -- print map { ( split '', 'P arctehYkl.no' )[ hex ] } split '', '86512cd57631063a1724963b';
