in thread Exegesis 6 - Named binding
Well, there are two things it could do. Either it is the same as %details{who} = "me", %details{why} = $because, which would make sence because of the unary * operator or it would be the same as %details = ();%details{who} = "me", %details{why} = $because, but then what usage is the * operator?makes no sence to me either, unless a colon is missing as inIndeed, because without the binding colon you don't get the named binding behaviour. I'll speculate that it'll empty out %details and then assign it whatever is on the RHS.
