in reply to How to make an ascii flower variable

A Google search found this page which calls the curlies {} "flower brackets" and talks about "flower variables" meaning variables written as ${name} instead of $name because of interpolation in a string like "mv $file ${file}_old".

Maybe that's what girl meant. Maybe.

    I think you're on to something:

    $hash = { cannabis, flower };

      Only someone on something like that would forget my or another qualifier as appropriate ;-)

        This is a public forum and the posts stay online for long ... it might not be the best idea to admit it's our $hash or even my $hash ;-)
