Re^2: how to $hash{key}{@keys} = @values

Thanks a lot! I thought I had tried all the possible incantations, but I had missed this one. It even makes sense, now that I see the solution.

It more than makes sense, it's readily derivable. First, take the basic form of access you want, in this case a hash slice: `@hash{@keys}`, then replace the variable name (but leave the sigil) with an expression for the reference in curly braces: `hash` becomes `{$hash{key}}`, leaving `@{$hash{key}}{@keys}`. I'd recommend taking a peek at References quick reference.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
