      Again, don't worry! =)

      After fruitless searching in perlvar and perlsyn I just did a googlesearch for perldoc variable curly braces name which led me to perldata

      As you can see I already needed to know the answer to find it quickly ...

      Of course in hindsight perldata is the right place to look for variable syntax
