in thread What's with the tt-/tt operator?

Ahh, thanks. That makes a lot of sense and I had actually pondered globbing a bit, but I've never found a reason to need to use globbing, so I haven't learned that much about it. Perhaps now is a good time...

    No, the globs are irrelevant here. The rv2hv thing is the essential point.

    If $h and %h are lexical variables, then there are no globs involved at all, but the behavior is the same.
