Ikegami, thanks for your useful reply! What is going on in that for declaration? I have never seen it before like that and am confused about the position of the byname declaration, it almost looks like it part of the hash.

      Is it part of a for loop?

        The "{ }" are part of the loop syntax. The middle line is the body of the loop. It's what's executed for each pass of the loop.
