in thread find and replace project with values coming from a table

I choose for the former because with the given data, the problem doesn't arise. If you want to be able to cope with possible false values (except for 0, the empty string, and undef would be false too) I would use: 
    $_ = $subs {$_} if exists $subs {$_};

The effect is the same of course, but it looks better IMO.

    Agreed, that does look a lot better! It's technically better too, as mine was foolishly replacing $_ with itself in the event of a failed match.
