It's probably an unimplemented/buggy feature of Pugs. I didn't completely follow every detail of your discussion but I know of a problem where aliasing only works readonly, currently. There is a pugsbugs-test for that problem. See http://svn.perl.org/perl6/pugs/trunk/t/pugsbugs/value_alias_readonly.t Currently one has to workaround that, e.g. work with hash elements and explicitly assign the result back via "%hash{$_} = ..." or similar. AFAIR. GreetinX Steffen -- Steffen Schwigon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Dresden Perl Mongers <http://dresden-pm.org/>
