in thread passing the reference of hash values array

yes, IIRC it bypasses some mechanisms like prototype checking ...

which editor do you use?

    Ah, I will switch over to the new syntax then. I use vim.

      Strange ... I tested different editors, vim is the only one which starts highlighting &calls.

      emacs and geany only highlight sub definitions, but never calls, no matter if with or without &.

      But IMHO this makes sense if you start coloring barewords (function calls don't need parens), which text-tokens should then remain in the default color?
